I am currently recruiting for a strong customer service/administration candidate for a manufacturing company based in the Crawley area. This candidate will benefit from having a background in sales administration, purchasing and freight but this is not essential.

- Oversee the procurement of products from suppliers keeping contacts updated and informed of any issues, ensuring all information is recorded correctly on the purchasing system
- Manage stock levels to maximise sales opportunities and manage costs
- Coordinate with the sales team in regards to contracts
- Bi-weekly stock assessments to manage the ordering process ensuring there is no risk of under or overstocking
- Manage product lead times ensuring timely delivery and always providing excellent customer service
- Coordinate and schedule deliveries in collaboration with freight forwarders
- Collaborate with other internal departments to conduct supplier reviews, delivery schedules and competitive pricing
- Generate monthly reports on the analysis of slow-moving stock
If you have a strong customer service/administrative background and/or have experienced in logistics, freight forwarding or purchasing, please apply and Reed will be in touch.
