* Preparing and issuing accurate customer quotations, working closely with the sales team.
* Processing customer purchase orders and maintaining accurate order records.
* Coordinating delivery dates with colleagues and suppliers, keeping customers updated.
* Following up on outstanding quotations, orders and delivery queries.
* Managing customer service enquiries via telephone and email, taking ownership through to resolution.
* Providing day-to-day administrative support to the sales team and assisting with customer account queries.
* Maintaining accurate customer information and records within internal systems.
* Liaising with internal departments to ensure orders are processed and progressed efficiently.
* Identifying opportunities to improve administrative processes and support team efficiency.

We're looking for someone who enjoys being productive, has a genuine interest in learning and takes pride in making a difference within their team.
The ideal candidate will have:
* Previous experience in sales support, office administration, order processing or customer service would be advantageous.
* A proactive and enthusiastic approach, with the confidence to use their own initiative.
* A genuine willingness to learn new skills, develop their knowledge and take on new responsibilities.
* The ability to recognise priorities and identify tasks that need attention without always needing direction.
* Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage a varied workload.
* Excellent attention to detail and a commitment to producing accurate work.
* Confident and professional communication skills, both written and verbal.
* Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office and the ability to learn new systems.
* A willingness to support colleagues and contribute to the wider success of the team.
* A positive, motivated approach with a genuine desire to do well and develop within the business.
