• Carry out final outgoing inspection of finished goods as required.
• Access and update customer shipping portals as required.
• Generate and issue manual invoices to support customer loan assets as requested by the Business Development team.
• Support the creation and maintenance of customer shipping plans and processes.
• Support customer returns, working closely with the Quality team on return-to-supplier activities.

You will have:

Strong attention to detail, particularly when managing documentation and financial information.

• Excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines.
• A good understanding of shipping and logistics processes and documentation.
• The ability to communicate effectively with customers and colleagues across different functions.
• A proactive approach to problem-solving.
• Experience using ERP systems.
• Experience in a supply chain, customer fulfilment, sales or similar operational environment.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint.
• The ability to work independently and contribute effectively as part of a collaborative team.
