- Shipping Admin: Raise basic dispatch and shipping paperwork within the system to ensure smooth delivery schedules.
- Issue Resolution: Act as a helpful problem solver, addressing delivery delays or minor client account queries promptly and efficiently.
About You
- Communication Skills: You have excellent written and spoken English, a confident telephone manner, and genuine empathy for the customer.
- Detail-Oriented: You take pride in accuracy, especially when entering data, managing orders, and keeping system records up to date.
- System Savvy: Proficiency in Sage 200 is a strong advantage, along with solid experience using standard office software (Outlook, Excel, Word).
- Eager to Learn: No background in composites or cables is needed—we offer complete product training for the right candidate.
- Team Player: Reliable, approachable, and comfortable working in a supportive head-office environment.
Why Join Us?
