Have you got excellent attention to detail, comfortable talking to people on the phone, over email and through messaging platforms such as teams? If so, we have an opportunity for you!

• An opportunity to join a dynamic team who work on a hybrid pattern between home and in our Peterborough office approx. 2 days per week
• A fun and supportive culture where hard work and right first time is key
• Training and development in more technical processes as well as future progression. All our current team leaders have started where you will start!

What we’re looking for

• Comfortable working with numbers and understanding the importance of correct data entry – this role will include data entry onto a number of systems where product codes can be similar.
