About the role

Administrator – Street Lighting

Office-Based | Wellingborough, Northamptonshire

Are you someone who thrives on people contact, fast-moving priorities and keeping a team organised and on track? If you’ve come from sales, recruitment or a customer-focused admin background, this could be a brilliant next step—using your relationship-building, follow-up and “make it happen” mindset in a role that genuinely keeps communities running.

This is an office-based Administrator position at our Wellingborough depot.
You’ll be one of two administrators in the team, covering a variety of tasks—with a focus either on Maintenance support or Business Support, depending on the role offered.

It’s ideal for someone who enjoys:

Being the first point of contact (calls, emails, visitors)
Owning actions and keeping records accurate
Following work through from enquiry to completion (very “sales/recruitment” in style)
Spotting improvements and taking initiative to make things run smoother

What you'll be doing

General administration

Handling phone calls and inbox queries
Record keeping, updates and maintaining accurate logs
Planning/programming tasks as required
Supporting the wider team with day-to-day administration

Maintenance support focus

Taking calls from members of the public about street lighting issues and providing excellent customer service
Acting as front of house for office visitors
Raising and monitoring fault tickets in the Asset Management System
Managing insurance claims where assets have been damaged and costs need to be recovered
Supporting inventory/system accuracy and maintaining precise records

Business support focus

If you enjoy the “deal flow” side of work, this is where you will really shine:

Preparing and issuing quotations
Liaising with clients and progressing enquiries through to completion
Coordinating and planning site works with supervisors/managers
Keeping project trackers and systems updated
Looking for opportunities for additional work-winning

Quality, compliance & competence

Coordinating building asset compliance (inspections, maintenance, scheduling)
Supporting internal quality control and audit readiness
Completing and monitoring BIM checklists/issues
Owning and monitoring training/competence records—booking courses to keep teams compliant
Supporting HEA/HERS compliance requirements

“My Contribution Champion” mindset

Bringing forward ideas, sharing good practice and helping improve how the contract runs

Who we're looking for

Essential

Confident using MS Office
Experience in an office administration environment
Strong customer service experience (phone/email—ideally with members of the public)
Positive, enthusiastic approach with a willingness to learn
A very high level of accuracy and care—you’ll take ownership and keep records detailed and correct

Desirable

Familiarity with database and mapping systems
Exposure to street lighting/highways (not essential)
Experience supporting training/competence compliance

Why work for us

Day in, day out, our teams deliver some of the UK’s most ambitious, exciting and meaningful projects; developing, building and maintaining the vital infrastructure that supports national economies and strengthens communities.

Why join us?

As if contributing to and supporting work that makes life better for millions wasn’t rewarding enough, we offer a full range of benefits too. You’ll have the freedom to shape the package that’s right for you and your life. Here are some of our key benefits:

Smart working, giving you more flexibility such as staggered start and finish times, with up to 40% remote working, where roles allow.
25 days paid annual leave (pro rata)
Family friendly policies which include 28 weeks full pay for maternity/adoption leave and four weeks full pay for paternity/partners leave
Pension, share incentive plan, volunteering leave, recognition schemes and much more…
