Salary: Upto 48,000 per annum, depending on experience 

Hours: Monday–Thursday 08:30–17:30, Friday 08:30–16:00 

Contract: Full-time or Part Time permanent

If things are running behind, you've already noticed. If an action hasn't been followed up, you're already chasing it. If the MD is stuck in admin he shouldn't be doing, you'd have sorted it before he noticed.

The role

A growing manufacturer based in Redditch. We've built the capacity now we're focused on making the business run with the discipline and follow-through that growth requires.

This role exists to make that happen. You'll work directly alongside the Managing Director, protecting his time, driving management accountability, and keeping the business organised and on track.

This is not a passive admin role. It's a business control role. The right person will have a low tolerance for loose ends.

What will you be doing?

You will reduce the CEO's day-to-day admin load and bring structure to how the business runs. Your work will span:

• Managing the MD's diary, priorities, meeting schedule, and follow-up actions
• Running a weekly management action tracker across all departments — sales, ops, finance, warehouse, purchasing
• Preparing meeting packs, agendas, and action lists — and making sure actions are followed through
• Handling HR administration — onboarding, holiday and sickness records, employee files, policy documents
• Overseeing office routines, supplier admin, filing, and general office standards
• Coordinating information flow between departments and flagging issues before they become problems

What does success look like?

In your first three months, you will take control of diary and meeting support, build a reliable weekly action tracker, document the core processes the business relies on, and free up meaningful CEO time that can go back into growing the business.

Who are we looking for?

You've got solid experience in supporting senior management  ideally in a manufacturing, logistics, distribution, or similarly fast-paced operational environment.

You don't need a degree. You need to be the kind of person who:

• Is naturally organised and has high personal standards
• Is comfortable chasing senior people and holding them to account
• Spots what needs doing without being asked
• Stays calm when priorities shift and keeps everything moving
• Handles confidential information with maturity and discretion
• Brings order to chaos rather than waiting for order to arrive

What's in it for you?

• A varied role with real influence on how a growing business runs
• Close working relationship with senior leadership
• 24/7 virtual GP access
• Long-term sickness cover and life assurance
• Annual leave including bank holidays
• A genuine company culture, including team and community initiatives
• Professional development through the company's "Be World Class" approach

We place candidates across Administration, Marketing, IT, HR, Finance, Customer Service, Purchasing, Engineering and more. We are an equal opportunities employer

Executive Summary

We're recruiting two recent graduates who want to build a career with a growing business — people looking for a company to progress with, not just a job to fill.

This is a genuine entry-level start, and we're upfront about that: it's the first step on a structured path that can lead to sales and account management, operations, or marketing. We're far more interested in your ambition and how you think than in the job title on day one.

You'll join our order processing and customer service team, supplying the hospitality and retail sectors. You'll learn SAP (or equivalent ERP), track order accuracy, and coordinate with manufacturing and logistics to keep delivery performance on target — gaining a real, data-driven grounding in how a sales operation actually runs. It's detail-driven, accuracy-critical work: the kind where getting the small things right is what keeps customers happy and deliveries on track. If that's the kind of work you take pride in, you'll do well here.

If you're a recent graduate ready to learn fast and grow with us, we'd like to hear from you.

The Role

In this role, you'll sit at the centre of the order-to-delivery process — supporting the sales administration team and gaining first-hand exposure to how data accuracy, system discipline, and cross-department coordination drive customer service performance.

Key Responsibilities

• Process customer orders accurately and on time, end-to-end from enquiry through to delivery
• Maintain accurate, up-to-date order and delivery records within SAP (or equivalent ERP system)
• Track order status and flag discrepancies, working to keep data integrity high across the system
• Coordinate with manufacturing and logistics teams to confirm delivery schedules and resolve timing issues
• Handle day-to-day customer queries professionally, escalating complex issues to senior team members
• Support reporting on order processing performance and delivery KPIs
• Contribute ideas for process improvement as you build familiarity with the systems and workflow
• Work closely with sales, operations, and customers as a key point of coordination

What We're Looking For

Essential:

• A recent degree (any discipline — we value how you think over what you studied)
• Genuine attention to detail — you notice the small discrepancies others miss and take pride in getting things right
• Process discipline: you're comfortable following structured systems and procedures accurately and consistently
• A methodical, evidence-based way of working — you weigh the facts and think a problem through before you act
• Confident working with data and systems, and motivated to keep records accurate and up to date
• A sense of urgency, with the ability to juggle multiple priorities and hit deadlines without letting accuracy slip
• Clear written and verbal communication, and a professional, customer-first manner
• A proactive mindset — you spot what needs doing and get on with it
• You must live within a 10 mile radius of Redditch, Worcestershire

Desirable:

• Interest in a long-term career in sales operations, account management, business analytics, or marketing
• An analytical bent — you enjoy working with numbers, systems, and the logic behind a process
• Previous part-time, placement, or internship experience in an office or customer service environment

Why This Role?

• Genuine entry-level grounding — no prior sales operations experience required
• Career pathway into sales and account management, operations, or marketing
• Direct exposure to SAP/ERP systems, KPI reporting, and supply chain coordination
• Work across the hospitality and retail sectors with strong long-term demand
• Structured support from an experienced sales administration team
• Salary to be confirmed

Your next opportunity could be just a call or click away.

The Opportunity

This is a rare chance to take the next step into your first Senior Management Team seat — leading the finance function of a long-established, internationally-connected membership charity, with genuine authority over financial controls, statutory compliance, and strategic decision-making at board level.

You'll be the organisation's principal finance authority, responsible for safeguarding fiduciary and statutory compliance (Charity SORP FRS 102, Companies Act, Charities Act, HMRC, Gift Aid and VAT), while acting as a strategic partner to the CEO, Deputy CEO and Board. This is a genuine seat at the top table, not a finance function buried beneath operations — you'll retain final authority on financial controls, compliance and professional judgement, and your insight will shape decisions at the very top of the organisation.

If you're currently a Finance Manager, Deputy Head of Finance, or Senior Finance Manager in the charity sector looking for your first seat on a Senior Management Team — or a Head of Finance at a smaller charity ready for a bigger, more complex remit — this is that step up.

What You'll Be Doing

• Leading financial strategy, budgeting, planning and cash-flow management across a complex, multi-entity charity
• Owning the financial control framework, accounting policies and statutory compliance — and delivering clean, on-time audits
• Producing clear, board-ready reporting and translating the numbers into insight for SMT, trustees and committees
• Leading and developing the finance team, and championing business partnering across the organisation
• Owning the finance systems roadmap and leading the financial elements of the corporate risk register
• Partnering with the CEO and Deputy CEO on financial sustainability, risk and strategic decisions

About You

Essential:

• Qualified accountant (CCAB, CIMA or equivalent)
• Significant finance leadership experience in a charity or not-for-profit setting, including line management of a finance team
• Strong charity SORP (FRS 102), statutory reporting, audit and compliance background, including HMRC, Gift Aid and VAT
• Experience advising boards, trustees or senior governance bodies — or working closely with them
• A proven team leader, comfortable operating within trustee-led governance structures

Helpful too:

• Experience of a membership organisation, group / multi-entity structure or complex income model
• Exposure to finance systems development or transformation
• Prior experience operating at SMT or board-reporting level

What's on Offer

• £55,000+ depending on experience, with flexibility for the right candidate
• Flexible, hybrid working — this is a team-leadership role, so not fully remote, but we'll agree a pattern that works for you
• Professional development training
• Wellbeing & security: a strong pension scheme, critical illness cover, and confidential counselling / employee support
• A cause worth getting behind: you'd be joining a values-driven charity whose volunteers deliver community and humanitarian impact at home and around the world

Interested?

Apply today, or for a confidential conversation about the role, contact the team at admin@ardenpersonnel.co.uk or call 01789 532220. We work on a quality-led, targeted basis, so we'd genuinely welcome a chat before you apply.

The Opportunity

How often do you get the chance to build something from the ground up?

We're recruiting a Branch Care Manager on behalf of a leading private home care provider, caring since 1989, with over 150 branches across England and Wales. This is a brand new branch opening in Lancaster, and they're looking for a leader to open the doors, take the branch through CQC registration, recruit the team and grow the service from scratch.

If you've ever watched things done in a way you knew you could improve on, this is your opportunity to take total ownership and build a service you're proud of, with full central support from dedicated Recruitment, Marketing and Compliance teams behind you.

The Role

As Branch Care Manager, you'll be the registered manager — it's your name above the door. Reporting to the Area Care Manager for your region, you will:

• Lead the branch through CQC registration and launch
• Recruit and develop your own team, starting with your Care Coordinator and care assistants
• Get out into the local community to build the brand and win new business — from local groups and community venues to healthcare partnerships
• Grow care hours sustainably and ethically, building the client base from the ground up
• Be genuinely hands-on: in the early stages of a new branch, you'll deliver care yourself when needed, leading from the front

All care delivered is private (no local authority contracts), ranging from 30-minute visits through to live-in care.

About You

• Domiciliary care management experience
  • A Registered Manager, Manager with CQC responsibility, or an experienced Deputy Manager who has genuinely operated at manager level and is ready for the step up
• Understanding of CQC standards, registration and inspection preparation (exposure to registration a strong advantage)
• Commercially driven
  • Energised by getting out into the community and growing a service, not just running one
• Hands-on leadership style  
  • Willing to deliver care when the branch needs you
• Resilient, proactive and solutions-focused, with real passion for the care sector
• Essential:
  • All candidates MUST hold a full UK driving licence and have access to their own vehicle
• Right to work in the UK
  • Please note, sponsorship is not available for this role

Rewards

• Salary up to £39,000, dependent on experience
• £4,800 annual bonus potential, and as your branch grows, your bonus earning opportunity grows with it
• On-call allowance of £75 per week when on call, plus carer's hourly rate for any care delivered while on call

Interview process: two stages — first with the Area Care Manager, second with the Head of Operations.
