About the Role

  • Using your knowledge, you will provide a high standard of customer service, solving issues and delivering results, doing whatever it takes to get a great resolution
  • You will report back to project teams and customers on order status and manage any issues or changes liaising between customers and suppliers.
  • You will support the rest of the team, helping them and building your knowledge on the whole purchasing process.

What are we looking for?

  • Ideally, experience in a similar role.
  • You will thrive in a fastpaced environment, great at organising your time, priorities and ensuring you meet any deadlines.
  • You will have an investigative mind, keen to understand any situation, and creative in your problem solving.
  • You will enjoy communicating, articulating summaries, and highlighting issues along with solutions. You will be able to confidently communicate with a range of audiences, both internally and externally.
  • You will have a 'can do' attitude, with the ability to 'flex' and perform as a strong team player.
