About the Role
This is a broad, high-impact position that serves as the operational backbone of Legrand's Serbian office. The Finance & Administration Specialist works closely with the General Manager and Finance controllers, taking ownership across four key areas: executive & office administration, financial and procurement operations, contracts and compliance, and fleet management.

The role suits a proactive, detail-oriented professional who is equally comfortable preparing a purchase order in SAP, supporting an internal audit, and coordinating office logistics - often on the same day.

Responsibilities

1. Executive & Office Administration

  • Manage reception duties: handling calls, welcoming clients and visitors

  • Handle all incoming and outgoing mail and parcels

  • Organize and maintain office supplies, refreshments, and hygiene materials

  • Coordinate cleanliness and order in public areas (entrance, kitchen, showroom, meeting rooms)

  • Contribute to internal communications, employee events, and agency coordination

  • Maintain and update internal guidelines and procedures when needed 

2. Financial & Procurement Administration

  • Manage the full procurement cycle: generate purchase orders, process goods receipts, perform incoming invoice control and outgoing payment processing in SAP

  • Track and reconcile customer accounts: monitor incoming payments, follow up on outstanding balances, and manage aged balance reporting

  • Conduct finance reconciliation with both customers and suppliers

  • Maintain accurate inventory records for fixed assets and marketing/communication materials

  • Oversee the purchasing procedure lifecycle, including documentation and archiving for bidding processes

  • Collaborate closely with internal and external financial accountants and controllers

  • Review and verify employee travel orders and expense reports

3. Contracts, Documents & Compliance

  • Ensure proper document archiving and organizational structure across all administrative records

  • Serve as the primary point of contact for all company insurance policies (health, life, travel, personal liability, and car)

  • Coordinate and report on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities

  • Manage internal and external Health & Safety (OHS) and fire protection reporting

  • Provide support and documentation during external and internal audits and process testing

  • Ensure compliance with Group rules, prepare and regularly update documentation and tracking files

  • Communicate with relevant authorities and supplier companies; organize tenders and support contract negotiations

4. Fleet & Asset Management

  • Manage the company car fleet: oversee documentation for insurance policies, leasing agreements, and fuel cards

  • Communicate with leasing companies and manage the parking system

  • Track assets across the organization: vehicles, laptops, access cards, and related equipment

  • Maintain comprehensive employee records including sick leave, vacation tracking, and expense reports

Qualifications

Essential

  • 3–5+ years of experience in an administrative, office management, or finance administration role

  • Hands-on experience with SAP or a comparable ERP system (e.g., Oracle, Navision)
