What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role supporting leadership with procurement, administration, accurate invoicing/stock control, and smooth logistics. I want a team that values reliability, fast quoting, and strong customer service.

I’m a highly organized personal assistant with extensive experience supporting senior leadership through end-to-end administration, procurement, sales support, and day-to-day operations. I’ve consistently managed ordering, quotes, diaries, and reporting to keep teams moving and decisions well-informed.

In my recent roles, I handled PPE ordering, requested quotes, supported maintenance planning, managed distribution and logistics (including truck coordination with transport companies), and ensured accurate invoicing and GRVs. I also maintained strong controls through daily/weekly/monthly stock counts, water reading reporting, and reliable cash and projection reporting for management.

I’m equally comfortable in financial and compliance-adjacent admin. I’ve supported debtors/creditors, bank reconciliations, petty cash, credit card reconciliations, publishing invoices/slips on Hubdoc, and year-end preparations—always with a focus on accuracy, timeliness, and audit-ready documentation.

Beyond procurement and operational admin, I’ve also built experience across reception, customer service, and tender-related work. I’ve prepared tender manuals and red line drawings, completed tenders and related forms, coordinated courier collections, and ensured smooth communication through incoming call handling and internal scheduling.
