- £26,801Permanent, Full time Future Walk, West Bars, Chesterfield, S49 1PF
The Administrator role will be responsible for a range of administrative tasks within Royal Mail Fleet. Administrators will work as part of a team and will work across a range of processes that will entail delivering to daily weekly, and monthly targets. The In Life Control team are responsible for a range of administrative tasks within Royal Mail Fleet, processing; VED, driver fines, charging zone administration, vehicle document library, vehicle ordering and vehicle sales. Advisors are expected to work as part of a team to cover all duties when required.
About the role
In this role, you’ll play a key part in delivering a smooth, reliable and high‑quality administrative service that consistently meets agreed service levels. From accurately inputting and maintaining data across systems such as Excel, Word and M5, to verifying, reconciling and analysing information, you’ll help ensure the team always has the insight and accuracy it needs. You’ll keep clear, well‑organised records — both digital and physical — while confidently extracting data to assist with queries and decision‑making.
You’ll also act as an important point of contact, providing efficient general admin support, handling incoming calls and responding to customer requests with a strong service‑led approach. Your ability to resolve issues, work closely with suppliers, manage shared inboxes and process invoices from start to finish will help keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys being organised, proactive and at the centre of keeping operations moving.

Just as importantly, you’ll be a positive team player — someone who collaborates well, supports colleagues and contributes to a smooth, efficient operation. Clear, confident communication is essential, whether you’re handling telephone calls, responding to emails or engaging in written correspondence. If you’re someone who combines technical ability with strong interpersonal skills, this role will give you plenty of scope to shine.
