Job Description

Sales Administrator

Ipswich | £26,000 – £28,000 | Genuine Route Into Progression

Office-based. Monday–Friday.

This isn't an admin role with a glass ceiling. It's a foot in the door at one of the UK's fastest-growing independent surfacing contractors - the one that's gone from start-up in 2018 to delivering projects for major housebuilders, Highways England contractors, councils, motor sport circuits and national retail brands.

If you want to learn the construction commercial function from the inside and progress into sales or estimating, this is the seat to be in.

The Business

A UK-wide independent surfacing contractor running 24/7, 365 days a year. Highways, residential developments, industrial estates, airports, drag racing circuits, stadiums, car parks - if it's tarmac or asphalt, they lay it. The team delivers projects across the whole country from motorways down to country lanes, and they're growing fast. You'll sit right next to the sales and estimating teams, watching deals land from first enquiry through to project handover.

The Role

You're the engine room of the commercial function. Every enquiry, every tender, every piece of client feedback runs through you.

  * Log and manage incoming enquiries in Pipedrive (CRM)

  * Set up new opportunities, job files and project folders

  * Coordinate tender documentation and internal comms

  * Issue job-win notifications across the business

  * Support the sales team by:

      * Following up on submitted tenders

      * Making outbound calls to clients to check status and feedback

      * Keeping regular communication flowing with prospects

  * Keep data accurate, tidy and up to date

  * Support general admin across the commercial function

What Success Looks Like

  * A CRM that actually tells the truth about the pipeline

  * Tenders handled efficiently and followed up properly

  * More post-tender feedback from clients - because you chased it

  * Sales, estimating and operations teams that trust the data you own

You

  * Previous experience in an admin or sales support role

  * Strong organisational and communication skills - you don't let things slip

  * Confident making outbound calls to clients (this is not a hide-behind-email role)

  * Comfortable in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment

  * Proactive - you take ownership instead of waiting to be told

  * Interested in progressing into sales or estimating (this is the whole point)

What You Get

  * Salary £26,000 – £28,000

  * Clear progression route into sales or estimating for the right person

  * Exposure to a growing, ambitious commercial function

  * A seat right next to experienced sales and estimating professionals

  * Office-based role with a tight team - you'll actually know everyone

The Honest Bit

This is not a coast-along admin job. You'll be busy. The company is growing fast, enquiries come in thick, and tenders don't chase themselves. If you want predictable and quiet, this isn't it. If you want to learn how a commercial construction function really works - and put yourself on track to a sales or estimating career in 18–24 months - apply.
