The Role

• Good attention to detail and accurate data entry skills


• Confidence dealing with customers and suppliers


• Good telephone and communication skills


• The ability to manage your own workload and work with minimal supervision


• A flexible, hands-on approach and willingness to get involved wherever needed

• Fully onsite within a small, friendly team


• Immediate opportunity to provide valuable support during a period of systems change
