Support Administrator

circa £25,000 per annum (depending on experience) in Brighton

MacConvilles is a well-established, multidisciplinary construction consultancy based in the South East of England.
Trusted for our technical expertise and personal approach, we work across a wide range of sectors - including education, healthcare, industrial, leisure, ecclesiastical, commercial and residential.

We're known for building long-term client relationships and delivering projects with care, clarity and commitment. As our business continues to grow, we're now looking for a Support Administrator to join our friendly, professional team and play a key role in keeping our operations running smoothly.

This is a full-time, permanent role based in our Brighton office, where you'll work closely with our Office Manager and teams across the business to support day-to-day operations.

You'll be involved in a wide variety of tasks - from producing documents, spreadsheets and meeting minutes, to keeping our central cloud-based Business Management System up to date. You'll handle telephone enquiries, monitor our company mailbox, welcome visitors, manage post, and provide essential administrative support to ensure the office runs efficiently.

This is a busy and varied role that requires creativity, a proactive attitude, and the ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team. On-the-job training will be provided, and there will be opportunities to expand your skills and take on additional responsibilities.

We're seeking a capable and organised professional with:

• Strong administrative skills with the ability to multitask, prioritise, and adapt in a fast-paced environment.
• Proactive, responsible, and enthusiastic, able to work under pressure and meet deadlines.
• Self-motivated with excellent organisational skills to balance conflicting priorities.
• Meticulous attention to detail.
• Collaborative team player with strong interpersonal skills.
• Confident communicator who can engage with colleagues, visitors, and clients in a professional, approachable manner.
• Skilled in producing reports, documents, spreadsheets, and meeting minutes.
• Maintain and update documentation on our cloud-based Business Management System.
• Confident using the full Microsoft Office suite; proficiency in Excel (formulas, tables) essential. Adobe InDesign experience desirable.
• Manage visitors, telephone enquiries, the company mailbox, and incoming/outgoing post.
• Attend virtual meetings and support smooth office operations.
• Experience in the construction industry is advantageous but not essential.

We offer the best of both worlds: a close-knit, friendly office culture where people are genuinely valued, and a business that delivers large, interesting projects across multiple sectors.

You'll be given the support, tools and training needed to succeed, along with opportunities to broaden your role - whether that's through professional development, learning new systems, or becoming a first aider, fire warden, or mental health first aider.

In return, we offer:

• A competitive salary of circa £25,000 per annum (DOE)
• Contributory pension scheme
• On-site parking and excellent transport links

MacConvilles is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer and is committed to fostering an inclusive, supportive environment for all.
