Job Description
We are seeking a meticulous and efficient Data Entry Clerk to join a dynamic team supporting businesses in Gloucester. This role is pivotal in maintaining the accuracy and integrity of critical business information, from customer records and inventory logs to financial data and operational reports. You will be the backbone of data-driven decision-making for our client, a respected organisation within the Gloucester business community. The position has become available due to increased project workload and seasonal demand, offering an immediate start for the right candidate.

At Recruiting Today, we don't just fill vacancies; we build careers and solve staffing challenges. Our expertise in placing Data Entry Clerks in Gloucester is matched by our proficiency in other sectors, such as finding Administrative Support Officers in Birmingham or sourcing Contact Centre Advisors in Leicester. We apply the same rigorous, candidate-focused approach to every role. You will benefit from a straightforward registration process, a dedicated consultant who acts as your point of contact, and access to a wide range of unadvertised roles. If you have a keen eye for detail, can work at pace, and are looking for a reliable immediate start in Gloucester, we want to hear from you today.
Key Responsibilities
- Accurately inputting alphanumeric data from various source documents (invoices, forms, reports) into designated computer systems, databases, and spreadsheets with a high degree of speed and precision.
- Performing regular data verification and validation checks to identify and correct errors, inconsistencies, or missing information, ensuring the highest standard of data integrity.
- Maintaining and updating existing records, archiving outdated files electronically, and ensuring all digital filing systems are organised and easily retrievable.
- Compiling, sorting, and preparing source data for computer entry, which may involve scanning documents and using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software.
- Generating routine reports from the database, assisting with basic data analysis, and providing administrative support to the team as required, such as minor word processing or email management.
What We're Looking For
- Proven experience in a data entry, administrative assistant, or similar clerical role. Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite (especially Excel and Word) is essential.
- Exceptional attention to detail and accuracy, with a methodical approach to work. The ability to maintain focus during repetitive tasks is crucial for this clerical position in Gloucester.
- Strong typing speed (minimum 45 WPM) with a high level of accuracy. Familiarity with data capture software or CRM systems is a significant advantage.
- Excellent time-management skills, the ability to work independently to meet deadlines, and good verbal communication skills. A positive, professional attitude and reliability are non-negotiable.
Salary & Benefits
We believe in fair compensation for quality work. This Data Entry Clerk role offers a competitive hourly rate, typically between £11.50 and £13.50 per hour, dependent on your specific experience and the exact requirements of the client.
