Build the Systems That Power Growing Business
At Blue A, we've spent over 15 years building one of the South East's most respected asbestos management companies. With strong foundations now in place, we're entering an exciting new phase of growth with the launch of Blue Solar, our renewable energy division.
We're investing heavily in technology, automation and digital transformation - not as a one-off project, but as a long-term commitment to building smarter businesses.
We're looking for a Business Systems & Automation Specialist to become the technical owner of our business systems, helping us automate processes, connect software, eliminate repetitive tasks and continuously improve how our businesses operate.
This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys solving real business problems with technology and wants to see the direct impact of their work every single day. This role is ideally suited to someone looking to take the next step in their career by owning and developing business systems within a growing company.
The Role
We're not looking for a high-level consultant or someone to produce strategy documents. We already know where we're going. We're looking for someone who can build it.
You'll work closely with senior management to implement an exciting automation roadmap across both Blue A and Blue Solar, becoming the person our team turns to for business systems, workflow automation and digital innovation.
Alongside automation projects, you'll oversee the day-to-day administration of our business systems and IT environment, ensuring our people have the tools they need to work efficiently.
What You'll Be Doing
- Become the internal owner of our Zoho One environment and business systems.
- Build and improve automated workflows across the business.
- Configure CRM processes and operational workflows.
- Connect software platforms using APIs, Zoho Flow, Zapier and other integration tools.
- Replace manual, paper-based processes with efficient digital solutions.
- Develop dashboards, reporting and operational insights.
- Support users with new systems and encourage company-wide adoption.
- Manage user accounts, software licences, Microsoft 365 administration and general business IT.
- Work alongside external IT providers where required.
- Research and implement new technologies, AI tools and automation opportunities that improve business efficiency.
Technologies You'll Work With
You'll have the opportunity to work with technologies including:
- Zoho
- Zapier
- Microsoft 365
- Stripe
- Sage
- APIs & Webhooks
- AI tools including ChatGPT and Gemini
Experience with all of these isn't essential - we're looking for someone with the right technical mindset who enjoys learning new technologies.
What We're Looking For
Essential
- 2-5 years' experience in Business Systems, CRM Administration, IT Systems or Business Automation.
- Experience configuring or supporting CRM platforms.
- Experience creating automated workflows.
- Excellent troubleshooting and problem-solving skills.
- Strong communication skills with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical users.
- A proactive mindset with the confidence to take ownership of projects.
Highly Desirable
- Zoho CRM / Zoho One
- Deluge scripting
- Zapier or Make
- SQL
- Experience working with APIs and system integrations.
Our Culture
We're not building a corporate IT department. We're building a close-knit team where everyone has a voice, everyone contributes, and everyone takes pride in helping the business grow.
Technical ability is important, but attitude matters just as much. We're looking for someone who's technically capable, easy to work with, and genuinely enjoys helping the whole team succeed.
We hire for the long term. We want someone who'll become a trusted teammate, someone people enjoy working with, and someone who's excited to grow with the business.
Your Future With Us
This isn't a fixed-term transformation project. While you'll play a key role in delivering our automation roadmap, your role won't end there.
As Blue A and Blue Solar continue to grow, you'll become the long-term owner of our business systems, continuously improving, supporting and evolving the technology that underpins both businesses.
There will always be new ideas to implement, new technologies to explore and new opportunities to make our operations even more efficient.
What We Offer
- Competitive salary of £38,000-£45,000, depending on experience.
- Company pension.
- Free on-site parking.
- Modern office environment.
- Direct access to senior leadership with the opportunity to influence how the business operates.
- Genuine autonomy and ownership over your work.
- Long-term career development as both Blue A and Blue Solar continue to expand.
