The Sales Coordinator Role
Sales Coordination is a key part of what we do, providing the crucial 'bridge' between our customers and our production, internal purchasing, logistics and external sales teams. This fast-paced, multi-faceted role will see you handling inbound customer enquiries and processing sales orders. In addition you will assist the external sales executives and generate some outbound activity to help develop customer spend and identify new opportunities. This position is wholly office based and focussed upon customer engagement.

Please note, this position is wholly office based and due to the location of our Grantham site, own transport is preferred.
Sales Coordinator Key Duties
Do you have the correct profile?
We know that this role will ideally suit an experienced internal sales person who can demonstrate a good track-record of success in a similarly fast paced position. That said, it's often about character and personality. So if you fancy a fast paced & varied role where you can showcase your charisma in charming our customers and you're not afraid to make outbound calls, we would love to hear from you. You will need to learn our internal systems (CRM etc.) but that goes for anyone and we will provide full training. It is however vitally important that you have a first class telephone manner (friendly and professional) coupled with strong administration skills. It also helps if you are commercially aware and target driven. Some experience of working within a production/manufacturing led business could potentially be useful.
We welcome and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds irrespective of your age, gender, disability, race, nationality, ethnicity, gender identity, religion, or sexual orientation. Should you require any specific support or adjustments during the recruitment process, please email our recruitment team directly.
