Based within the small office administration team, you will be responsible for processing sales and purchase orders, whilst coordinating orders coming in and out of site. You will deal with UK, European and International orders.
This is a varied, hands-on role where no two days are likely to be quite the same. You'll play an important part in keeping orders moving and making sure the administration behind each transaction is taken care of.

- Acting as a key point of coordination between sales, finance, customers, suppliers and transport providers.
- Processing purchase orders, goods received and sales invoices for UK and international customers.
- Arranging UK and overseas transport, obtaining quotations from hauliers and freight forwarders.
- Coordinating imports and exports, ensuring all relevant shipping, despatch and transport documentation is completed accurately.
- Maintaining documentation and keeping records and filing systems up to date.
- Reconciling purchase invoices and supplier statements.
- Providing wider office support, including answering incoming calls and general administration.
What are we looking for?
We're looking for someone who is organised, numerate and enjoys having a varied workload. You'll be comfortable juggling different priorities, communicating with customers and suppliers, and making sure the details are taken care of.
Ideally, you'll bring:
- Previous experience in an administration, sales support or logistics coordination role.
- Strong organisational skills and the ability to prioritise and manage your own workload.
- Good numerical skills and confidence working with figures.
- Good IT skills, ideally with previous experience of Sage 50.
- Experience of import/export documentation would be advantageous.
- A proactive approach, good attention to detail and the ability to work flexibly as part of a small team.
