As a data entry clerk (or database administrator) it is your job to update and maintain information on computer systems and in archives.

Its an important role as information in these systems is only valuable if it is accurate, up to date and useable.






So, what will I actually be doing?
The job description is quite straightforward and your day will involve entering information into the computerised database. The type of information varies from company to company. If you work for a sales company for example it could be sales data or personal information on new clients, if you work for a research firm it could be market research survey results.

Information you work with might be text based or numerical. It could be paper-based information that needs logging into spreadsheets or databases.

As master of the archives, you might have a company facing role where it is your responsibility to help other employees find the information they need. It is also quite common as you move up the ladder to combine the role of data entry clerk with a customer service advisor role.Data Entry Clerk Responsibilities
