The Opportunity

A well-established, successful family-run manufacturing business in South Molton is looking to welcome a new Sales Support / Office Administrator to its friendly and supportive team.

This role would suit candidates with experience as a Sales Administrator, Sales Support Coordinator, Office Administrator, or Administrative Assistant.

The company has grown steadily in recent years and is known for its positive working culture, long-serving staff, and commitment to developing people. Offered on a temp to perm basis, this is a role where you can build a long-term career, not just take a job.

The Role

As Sales Support / Office Administrator, you will play a key part in the smooth day-to-day running of the office and act as a central point of communication across several departments.

Key responsibilities include:

• Preparing and processing customer quotations
• Talking to customers and handling enquiries professionally and confidently
• Managing incoming and outgoing email correspondence
• Processing customer orders and related documentation
• Liaising with internal departments, including production, to ensure orders run smoothly
• Providing administrative support to sales, marketing, and purchasing
• Assisting with general office administration to keep things organised

This is a varied and engaging role where priorities can shift through the day, so the ability to adapt and re-prioritise is important.

About You

This role would suit someone with previous sales support or office administration experience who is looking for a stable, long-term position.

You will ideally have:

• A confident telephone manner and strong communication skills
• The ability to cope calmly with changing priorities
• Good attention to detail and organisational ability
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office
• Strong literacy and numeracy skills

Training will be provided, but the company is looking for someone who can learn by listening, pick things up quickly, and bring a general awareness to the work.

What's on Offer

• Pay of up to £14.00 per hour, negotiable for the right candidate
• Supportive, family-run working environment
• Free onsite parking
• Ongoing training and development opportunities
