Job Description

Every small business needs one person who holds the office together; at this transport and fleet company in Kempton Park, that's you. It suits someone who likes knowing exactly what a good day's work looks like.

The site is in Kempton Park; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

  • Update the monthly Excel dashboard for the owner or branch manager.
  • Process purchase orders and follow up with suppliers on delivery dates.
  • Prepare quotes, invoices and credit notes on Sage Business Cloud or Pastel.
  • Capture timesheets and send them to payroll before cut-off.
  • Manage petty cash and keep slips for the bookkeeper.
