Business Administration Apprentice

As a Business Administration Apprentice at Uniq Recycling, you will play a key role in supporting the smooth running of our daily operations. No two days are the same in our fast-growing recycling business, and you’ll gain experience across multiple departments, including sales, logistics, compliance, and customer service.
An average day may involve assisting with documentation for collections and recycling processes, communicating with customers and suppliers, and helping maintain organised and compliant records. You will work closely with the wider team to ensure that paperwork, schedules, and administrative tasks are completed accurately and on time. This apprenticeship offers a hands-on opportunity to develop professional skills while contributing to the environmentally responsible work we do.
Throughout your week, you will gain experience in a range of tasks such as processing invoices and delivery notes, supporting the scheduling of collections, and helping produce compliance certificates. You will receive training and guidance from experienced team members and have the chance to build confidence in communication, organisation, and office technology.

During your apprenticeship, you could be involved in tasks such as:
• Providing day-to-day administrative support across departments including logistics, compliance, and sales.
• Processing and managing key documents such as invoices, delivery notes, waste transfer notes, and recycling compliance paperwork.
• Supporting the scheduling and coordination of collections, deliveries, and internal meetings.
• Communicating professionally with customers, suppliers, and contractors via phone and email to ensure accurate information and high-quality service.
• Organising, updating, and maintaining both digital and physical records in line with GDPR requirements.
• Assisting with the creation and distribution of recycling, data destruction, and compliance certificates.
• Helping to streamline administrative systems and suggesting improvements to increase efficiency.
• Using Microsoft Office tools, CRM systems, and internal platforms to complete tasks accurately and efficiently.

As part of your apprenticeship, you will work alongside experienced colleagues who will guide and support your development. You’ll gain valuable workplace skills such as time management, communication, teamwork, organisation, and attention to detail. By the end of the programme, you’ll have strong foundational administrative experience within a dynamic, environmentally focused organisation.
This role is ideal for someone who is enthusiastic, eager to learn, and interested in building a long-term career in business administration. You will be an important part of the team, contributing to smooth operations and helping us deliver sustainable recycling solutions to our customers.
