This is a hands-on, people-first role for someone who thrives on getting things right for their clients - from the moment an order is placed through to delivery and beyond.

If you come from a manufacturing or product-based background and customer service is at the core of everything you do, we would love to hear from you.

Handle customer feedback constructively, acting as the client's voice internally to drive service improvements
Maintain accurate records within the CRM system, ensuring all account activity and correspondence is up to date
Prepare quotes, reports, and client-facing documentation as required
Support the wider team with account administration and any ad hoc tasks

What We're Looking For

Able to juggle multiple accounts and priorities simultaneously, staying calm and organised under pressure
Hands-on and adaptable - happy to roll up your sleeves and get into the detail when needed
Strong communicator, both written and verbal, with a high level of accuracy and attention to detail
Proven experience in complaint resolution - able to handle difficult situations with empathy, professionalism, and a clear focus on finding the right outcome for the customer
