Your new company

We love working with this client of ours - their staff have all been there for ages (the longest-serving member of staff has been with the company for 45 years!), which shows how happy they are and how they are valued. This is a small, friendly team that feeds into the larger business and the role is only being recruited because the current job holder is retiring. Our client would like to recruit soon and plans to interview next week.

Your new role

Your job will be to speak to customers that they have worked with for a long time to clarify their order details and then input those into the system as well as liaise with the production team to make sure everything runs smoothly. You will prepare quotes, generate invoices and track stock levels.

What you'll need to succeed

Of course, you'll have full training on their system, but experience of Excel and Outlook will be expected. You'll have amazing attention to detail (they can't afford to have decimal points in the wrong place ;-)) and great numeracy skills too.

Previous experience of working for a manufacturing company or in a sales admin job may mean that your application will be fast-tracked. This is a busy job, so you definitely won't get bored, but you'll also need to be able to prioritise your work to get the most out of every day.

What you'll get in return

The company has a good salary package for the level of responsibility in the job and for the local area - they also have a good benefits plan which includes long service awards, company pension, and the early dart every Friday. You will start on 20-days holiday plus the bank holidays, but this will go up to 25 days per year with length of service.
