Job description

Customer Experience Executive

Ceiling Tiles UK (CTUK) is the UK's leading online reseller of ceiling tiles and interiors and an award-winning e-commerce brand. We specialise in delivering ceiling solutions to customers nationwide, managing the full end‑to‑end fulfilment of orders through both our own warehouse and distribution centre, as well as our trusted network of suppliers across the UK.

About the Role

As a Customer Experience Executive, you'll play a key role in making sure every customer interaction runs smoothly from order to delivery & aftercare. This means staying on top of calls and emails, processing orders accurately, coordinating with our warehouse and courier partners, and keeping customers informed every step of the way.

The role is both process‑driven and dynamic. You'll work within our ERP system to follow clear fulfilment and order management processes, ensuring accuracy and consistency, while also bringing the confidence and energy to adapt quickly, solve problems on the spot, and keep communication proactive and professional. It's a fast‑paced environment where no two days are the same, perfect for someone who thrives on variety, team collaboration and takes pride in delivering a seamless experience.

Key Responsibilities

• Customer communication – answering phones, responding to emails, and providing clear, friendly, and professional support.
• Order management – processing orders accurately in our ERP system, taking payments, tracking deliveries, and ensuring everything arrives on time and in full.
• Issue resolution – handling queries, complaints, damages, and returns with a “no quibble” mindset, solving problems first, sorting the admin later.
• Delivery coordination – liaising with couriers, suppliers, and our warehouse team to keep everything running smoothly.
• Front‑foot service – proactive updates to customers, keeping them informed, and making sure they never have to chase us.
• Process improvement – suggesting ways to improve efficiency and service standards, aligned with CTUK’s wider brand objectives.
• Dynamic support – while technical sales is handled by another team, you’ll occasionally manage small quote tweaks, negotiations, or price adjustments to get an order secured.

About You

• 3‑5+ years’ experience in a customer‑facing role.
• Thrives on the phone and builds rapport quickly.
• Dynamic, resilient, and enthusiastic – able to roll with the punches in a fast‑moving environment.
• Detail‑obsessed and confident working across systems and processes.
• Writes and speaks with absolute professionalism.
• Loves being part of a team and is motivated by going the extra mile for customers.
• Doesn’t need to know construction / building materials (we’ll teach you), but brings service standards that match our world‑class ethos.
