- 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 fast-paced environment, be 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.

We offer a fun, dynamic and vibrant environment where people are supported to do their best work, and everyone has the opportunity to make a difference. As a company, we never stop investing in our culture. We appreciate that empowering, motivating and developing our people offers a challenging, fun and rewarding experience for everyone.
