Curious About the Admin Department? Understanding the Role and Impact of an Admin Manager

Dear All,

I would like to know more about administration/Admin Department. What all aspects come under admin? What is the role of an Admin Manager? How does it help the company in functioning?

Regards,
Shruti M

Hi Shruti,

The administration department is again a very responsible part of any organization. It is the mediator between every department. These activities are covered under an admin person:

1. Coordination and communication with all departments inside the company.
2. Coordination with branch offices (if the company has) or headquarters.
3. Coordination with vendors.
4. Communication via email/phone.
5. Records management.
6. Attendance/time office management.
7. Housekeeping.
8. Handling couriers.
9. Maintaining files.
10. Handling official documents, etc.

Hope this helps.

Dear Deepali,

Thank you very much. I am working as an HR Executive in a private limited company with about 100 employees. Here, I am handling HR as well as Admin. I want to focus on one area for my next opportunities, and I think I am more suitable for Admin. Can you suggest to me what kind of skills and qualities are required to become an Admin manager?

Regards,
Shruti
