Position Summary
Customer Services and Internal Sales Support:
The role involves dealing with incoming enquiries and quote requests, order processing and other associated administration tasks, providing unparalleled customer service.
The role is an exciting and rewarding position and is very much the “face” of the organisation involving the efficient handling of day to day incoming enquiries, orders and quote requests, whether this be via telephone, email or via the web.
One of the primary responsibilities will be to handle and process the incoming customer enquiries, especially in relation to customer delivery questions/complaints and this can mean liaising with the third party couriers and confirming ETA’s, PODs and updating contact details/rearranging.

- Processing customer purchase orders by processing through Sage Accounts software and acknowledging the order/despatch date back to the customer via email and passing on internally to the operations and despatch team.
- Dealing with Monitoring the main email box and delegating email enquiries to other departments such as ‘technical’ and ‘accounts’.
- Acting in a supportive role for the Account Managers and Business Development Managers by preparing quotations and price lists and sending correspondence on their behalf.
You will need to be able to organise and prioritise activities, especially in busy periods and will require an eye for detail and a can-do attitude bearing in mind that much of the role is regarded as “the face of Quelfire” and customer emotions can run very high when they are chasing delivery ETA’s.
