In my role at Glenair, my focus is to assist in the smooth production of various products. As an administrative role, my day-to-day consists of but is not limited to; maintaining the paperwork for individual work orders, including listing and keeping track of any issues that could cause a setback, compiling daily rejects, and providing the information to my manager, tracking overdue sales orders for the UK sites and for my assigned departments, compiling data for customer reports, internal reports and any other necessary tasks. A large part of my role depends on liaising with other departments within the business for information to fulfil my role as best I can. Most of my computer-related tasks are completed using Excel, however I often use other Microsoft Office tools as and when needed.

At Sulzer, I worked in an office-based job and supported my fellow administrators, my manager, and the engineers in the workshop. Some of my main responsibilities included: • All administrative duties, including but not limited to booking in, inputting stock regulations, processing daily timesheets, purchasing invoicing, constructing reports, evaluating vendor database, organizing personnel in conjunction with the supervision team, using Dynamics, compiling quotations, etc. • QESH administration (organizing safety media training, updating QESH boards, audit preparation) and general QESH support as directed by the manager. • Any additional duty assigned by the office supervisor and/or manager. • Internal auditing including the goods in process, environmental duties, and the purchasing process. The control and responsibility of one of the rail contracts. This involved making sure everything within the contract is up to date and all the specifications were followed through the process of jobs being worked on. All rail work was audited by RISAS; therefore, this turned into a large part of my day-to-day work.
