Commercial Assistant (Maternity cover)

Looking for your next opportunity in a supportive and growing business?

Our client, a well-established and expanding company in the construction and engineering sector, is looking for a Commercial Assistant to join their team in Northampton. This is a temporary role to provide maternity cover, but as the business continues to grow, there may be longer-term opportunities available.

The Role

This is a varied and rewarding position where you’ll provide support to a busy Commercial department and work closely with colleagues across different teams. Day-to-day responsibilities will include:

• Providing general administrative support

• Processing subcontractor applications and invoices

• Preparing reports and supporting the Commercial Director and surveyors

• Assisting with cash flow and cost information

• Collating timesheet and cost allocation details

• Liaising with the Labour department to update resourcing profiles

• Assisting with supply chain compliance, audits, and KPI tracking

What We’re Looking For

Our client is seeking someone who is:

• Organised, with strong attention to detail

• Confident using IT (Microsoft Office is essential; accounting systems experience is a bonus)

• Able to communicate well with colleagues at all levels

• Proactive, eager to learn, and willing to get involved wherever needed

Experience in a similar role would be advantageous but is not essential – the right attitude and willingness to develop are more important.

Why Apply?

• Work with a supportive and approachable team

• Gain valuable experience in a respected and growing business

• Enjoy variety in your daily tasks

• Potential for further career opportunities
