Sue Ross Recruitment are currently working with a Sheffield based manufacturing company to recruit a German Speaking Sales Administrator. The main purpose of the role is to provide administrative support to the sales team, and to liaise with UK and Export customers particularly in German speaking countries.
Duties include:
* Liaising with customers in terms of their requirements and delivery requests with a particular emphasis on looking after customers in German-speaking countries
* Undertaking all required sales office administration activity e.g.:
- Order processing and progressing
- Interpreting and detailing customer specifications
- Progressing / completing enquiries towards costing
- Issuing quotations against agreed timescales
- Agreeing final product specifications with customers
- Receiving / recording signed approved drawings from customers
- Issuing / releasing 'New Product Information Forms' for manufacture of tooling and parts
* Assisting with marketing initiatives such as the preparation of company brochures and leaflets and the organisation of exhibition stands at trade fairs
* Handling complaints in accordance with Company policy so as to ensure a fair settlement is achieved as quickly as possible
* Attending German trade shows by manning the exhibition stand and dealing with enquiries
The successful candidate must speak fluent German; any other language skills are an advantage but not a requirement. The role is office based but may involve some overseas travel and attendance at trade fairs, both as visitor and exhibitor.
This opportunity would suit a recent language graduate looking to develop their career within customer service or internal sales, someone with good German language skills looking for a new career direction or a more experienced Sales Administrator currently working within the manufacturing sector.
