Job Description: Data Entry Clerk, Bristol BS8
Our client, a respected professional services firm based in the heart of Bristol BS8, requires a diligent and efficient Data Entry Clerk to join their busy administration team on an immediate start basis. This role is pivotal in maintaining the accuracy and integrity of client databases, processing high volumes of information, and supporting various departments with essential clerical tasks.
The successful candidate will be someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, possesses exceptional attention to detail, and takes pride in delivering work with a high degree of accuracy. This is more than just a typing job; it's an opportunity to become the backbone of data flow for a dynamic company. Through Staff Direct's recruitment and staffing service, you'll gain access to this role with full support from our local Bristol consultants who understand the specific demands of the BS8 business community.
Key Responsibilities & Day-to-Day Duties
- Accurate Data Input and Management: Entering client details, financial figures, and operational data into proprietary CRM systems and Microsoft Excel spreadsheets with a target accuracy rate of 99.8%.
- Database Hygiene and Verification: Regularly auditing and cleansing existing databases to remove duplicates, update outdated records, and ensure GDPR compliance for all stored information.
- Document Processing: Scanning, filing, and electronically organising incoming mail, forms, and reports, ensuring a logical and retrievable digital filing system is maintained.
- Report Generation Support: Assisting team leaders and managers by compiling raw data into preliminary reports, charts, and summaries for weekly and monthly business reviews.
- Cross-Departmental Communication: Acting as a liaison between different departments to collect, verify, and transfer necessary data, requiring clear and professional written and verbal communication skills.
- Quality Control Checking: Performing routine checks on work completed by other team members or automated systems, flagging discrepancies and ensuring consistency across all data sets.
- Ad-Hoc Administrative Support: Providing general clerical backup to the office team, which may include tasks similar to those of a Personal Assistant (PA), such as scheduling, minute-taking for data-focused meetings, and preparing presentation materials.
What We're Looking For
- Proven Experience: At least 6-12 months in a data entry, admin assistant, or clerical role. Speed and accuracy are non-negotiable.
- Software Proficiency: Expert-level competency in Microsoft Excel (VLOOKUPs, pivot tables) and Word. Experience with CRM systems (e.g., Salesforce, HubSpot) is a major advantage.
- Organisational Excellence: Ability to manage multiple data streams, prioritise tasks under pressure, and maintain an impeccable level of organisation in both digital and physical files.
- Right to Work: Must have full, unrestricted right to work in the UK. All offers are subject to satisfactory reference checks.

Frequently Asked Questions
We require a minimum of 6-12 months of proven data entry or administrative experience. Speed (measured in keystrokes per hour) and accuracy are critical. Experience with Microsoft Excel (especially formulas like VLOOKUP) and any CRM software will significantly strengthen your application. If you have experience in related fields like legal clerking or office administration, this is also highly relevant.
This specific position is primarily office-based in the client's Bristol BS8 location due to the need to handle physical documents and integrate closely with the on-site team. However, after an initial training period, there may be some flexibility for occasional remote work. For those specifically seeking remote data entry roles, we recommend exploring our guide on finding remote jobs, though local office roles often offer faster starts and more immediate income.
