  • Maintaining records, certificates, and compliance logs

  • Assisting with order processing and general business support

What We’re Looking For

  • Previous experience within logistics, freight forwarding, shipping, or manufacturing administration

  • Good understanding of international shipping and Incoterms

  • Strong organisational and multitasking skills

  • Professional telephone manner and clear communication skills

  • Comfortable working independently and managing priorities

  • Strong attention to detail and problem-solving ability

  • Engineering or manufacturing environment experience would be highly advantageous

This is an excellent opportunity for somebody looking for a varied and stable position within a supportive business where experience and reliability are genuinely valued.
