Job Description: Data Entry Clerk in Birmingham B4
We are seeking a reliable and detail-oriented Data Entry Clerk to support our client's busy operations in the heart of Birmingham B4. This role sits at the core of efficient business function, ensuring critical information from invoices, customer records, inventory logs, and other sources is accurately captured and processed into the company's database systems. You will be joining a dynamic team within a leading organisation, where your contribution will directly impact operational smoothness and data integrity. Successful candidates will find this role an excellent stepping stone into the world of office administration, logistics support, or financial services.
At labourer.agency, we understand that a great Data Entry Clerk is more than just fast fingers; it's about precision, consistency, and understanding the importance of the data you handle. Our clients range from bustling distribution centres in the Jewellery Quarter to established professional firms near Snow Hill station. By applying through us, you gain access to a curated selection of these opportunities without the hassle of a fragmented job search. We manage the liaison, ensure you are paid correctly and on time, and provide ongoing support, much like we do for roles such as Construction Recruitment or Healthcare Staffing. We pride ourselves on being Birmingham's go-to agency for professional temporary staffing solutions.
Key Responsibilities & Daily Duties
- Accurate Data Input: Entering alphabetic, numeric, and symbolic data from source documents into computer databases, spreadsheets, and CRM systems with a high degree of accuracy and speed.

- Report Generation: Assisting in the compilation of basic reports, summaries, and lists from the entered data as requested by supervisors or other departments.
- System Maintenance: Updating and maintaining existing database records, ensuring all client, customer, or inventory information is current and correctly categorised.
What We're Looking For: Essential Skills & Experience
- Proven Data Entry Experience: Previous experience in a data entry, clerical, or administrative role is highly desirable. Familiarity with data-intensive environments is a plus.
- Technical Proficiency: Strong working knowledge of Microsoft Office Suite, particularly Excel and Word. Experience with database software or industry-specific systems is advantageous.
- Exceptional Attention to Detail: A meticulous approach with a commitment to achieving 100% accuracy in all work. The ability to spot minute discrepancies is crucial.
- Strong Organisational Skills: Ability to manage workload, prioritise tasks, and maintain focus in a sometimes fast-paced environment to meet deadlines.
Salary, Pay & Benefits for Data Entry Clerks
We believe in offering transparent and competitive remuneration that reflects your skills and the local Birmingham market rates. Pay for Data Entry Clerk positions is negotiated based on specific role requirements, your prior experience, and the complexity of the tasks involved.
Compensation Breakdown
- Hourly Pay Range: 12.50 - 14.50 per hour. Entry-level roles typically start at the lower end, while positions requiring experience with complex systems or in regulated sectors command higher rates.
- Weekly Pay: All temporary workers are paid weekly directly into their bank account, ensuring you have regular and reliable income.

Frequently Asked Questions for Data Entry Clerk Applicants
What is the typical typing speed required for a Data Entry Clerk role?
While requirements vary, most of our Birmingham clients look for a minimum typing speed of 40-45 words per minute (WPM) with high accuracy (97%+). Some roles focusing on numeric data may prioritise accuracy and familiarity with 10-key pads over raw words-per-minute speed. We assess your capabilities during the registration process to match you with suitable roles.
Do I need specific qualifications or software experience?
Formal qualifications are less critical than demonstrable skills and experience. Proficiency in Microsoft Excel (creating spreadsheets, basic formulas) and Word is essential. Experience with database software like SAP, Sage, or proprietary systems is a significant advantage but not always a requirement, as training is often provided. A good standard of education (GCSEs or equivalent) in Maths and English is typically expected.
Are the shifts flexible? Can I work part-time or weekends?
Absolutely. One of the key benefits of working through labourer.agency is the flexibility we offer. We have a wide range of clients with different needs: standard Monday-Friday office hours (9-5), part-time morning or afternoon shifts, and even occasional weekend work for inventory or data migration projects. During registration, you specify your availability, and we only put you forward for roles that match it.
How quickly can I start working after I apply?
For candidates who have all their documentation ready (Right to Work, ID, etc.), we have facilitated starts within 24-48 hours of application for"immediate start" roles. The speed depends on the client's interview process. Some require a quick video or in-person interview, while others may onboard based on our recommendation alone. We are known for our speed, similar to our service for Same Day Temp Workers in other sectors.
What is the career progression like for a Data Entry Clerk?
Data entry is a fantastic entry point into many industries. With proven reliability and skill, clerks often progress to roles like Senior Data Administrator, Team Leader, Accounts Assistant (with additional training), or into specialised areas like medical coding, logistics coordination, or CRM management. Temporary assignments allow you to"try out" different sectors, from healthcare to finance, to find your preferred career path. We discuss progression goals during our regular check-ins.
Who is my employer if I get the job through labourer.agency?
For temporary assignments, labourer.agency is your employer. We handle your payroll, provide your contract, and are responsible for your rights as a worker. You will be working on-site at our client's location in Birmingham B4, but your point of contact for any queries about pay, hours, or issues is your dedicated consultant at our agency. This structure provides you with stability and support, a model we extend across all our placements, from Construction Workers to professional office staff.
