About Us

Mouldex Ltd is a large, friendly, professionally managed organisation, operating throughout the UK. We are enthusiastic about Mould, Condensation, and Radon control. To support the continuous growth of the business we are looking to recruit a diligent, reliable, detail orientated, motivated individual to join our expanding team.

As an Equal Opportunity Employer, we are open to all talent. The key candidate will have an agile mindset and flexible in their approach to work, as well as excellent communication and customer service skills.

What the department does

We plan and administer surveys, mainly in social housing, to investigate mould and condensation problems. Based on the survey report we then prepare a fitting quotation to the housing provider. Once approved, we plan and administer the works and schedule engineer visits to handle the mould issue and install ventilation systems right up to the point of invoicing and status reporting.

Purpose of the role

Goal of the office administrator role is to prepare quotations and to keep the Mouldex works calendar of site surveys and engineers' jobs booked up and up to date at all times. The aim is to get all works booked and completed by matching the best fit field engineers to the site & work required by customers. At all times you must keep customers and field operatives fully informed and supported.
