The Role

As a Sales Support & Customer Service Administrator, you'll play a key role in processing customer orders and supporting enquiries from a range of customers, including consumers, trade customers and builders' merchants.

You’ll be responsible for ensuring orders are entered accurately, completed within strict delivery deadlines and checked thoroughly before progressing for fulfilment.

Working as part of a collaborative and supportive team, you'll help maintain the smooth flow of orders while delivering a professional customer experience.

You’ll also need:

• Excellent accuracy and attention to detail
• Strong IT and system skills
• Confidence processing both straightforward and more complex customer orders
• The ability to work effectively under pressure and manage competing priorities
• A methodical and organised approach to work
• Strong communication skills and a professional telephone manner

The work can be repetitive at times, requiring sustained concentration and a high level of accuracy throughout the day. You'll be working within a team that operates to strict daily order deadlines, where attention to detail is critical to ensuring customer deliveries remain on schedule.

In return, you'll join a business that values teamwork, is investing in its facilities and is preparing for a significant period of growth.
