Office Coordinator Administration Apprenticeship J3461- Long Aston

About the Employer

Gilbert-Ash delivers award-winning construction projects across the UK and beyond, but what really sets them apart is how they work. They think creatively, work collaboratively, and care deeply about the impact their projects have on people, communities and the environment. From the safety and wellbeing of their teams to the places they help create, Gilbert-Ash is about doing things properly, not just getting the job done.

As an Office Coordinator Administration Apprentice, you will be at the heart of a busy project office, supporting site teams, consultants and visitors while developing strong business administration skills.

This is a varied, hands-on role that will build your confidence, organisation and communication skills while working towards a Business Administration Level 3 Apprenticeship.

You will be supported throughout your apprenticeship by SWAC, your host team at Gilbert-Ash, and your specialist training provider Weston College.

With support and training, you will learn how to:

• Open and close the project office and manage the switchboard professionally
• Welcome visitors and present a positive, professional company image
• Provide general office and project administration support
• Maintain records, files and site documentation
• Support meeting organisation and office facilities
• Assist with document control and project systems
• Support site teams with sustainability data, apprenticeship records and reporting
• Help maintain health, safety, quality and environmental procedures

No two days will be the same and you will gain real experience in a live construction project environment.

This role would suit someone who is:

• Organised, reliable and keen to learn
• Confident communicating with different people
• Comfortable working as part of a team and using their own initiative
• Interested in administration, construction or project environments

Essential:

• GCSEs (or equivalent) in Maths and English
