Ashtead Technology are looking for an organised and proactive Trainee Business Support Coordinator to join our Business Systems Team and provide a broad range of administrative and coordination support activities. This is a full-time, in-office position based in Kintore. The role will initially focus on providing administrative and coordination support, while progressively developing your knowledge and understanding of our business systems and processes.

Ideal Candidate

Ideally, we're looking for someone with previous experience in an administrative, operations, coordination or support role, with the confidence to work independently and take ownership of day-to-day responsibilities.

• Provide day-to-day administrative and coordination support.
• Manage and respond to a range of internal requests, ensuring they are recorded, progressed and followed through to completion.
• Maintain accurate records, trackers and registers, ensuring information is kept up to date and produce regular reports and statistics to support the team and wider business.

• Attend meetings and calls with internal stakeholders and external service providers where required, tracking agreed actions and providing updates to ensure tasks are completed within agreed timescales.
• Develop knowledge of our Business Systems through structured training, hands-on experience and support from the Business Systems team.
• Progressively develop the ability to provide first-line user support, resolving routine Business System queries and helping colleagues use the system effectively.
• Assist with coordinating business testing when changes or improvements are introduced, working with departmental representatives to gather feedback and ensure actions are followed up.
