THE OPPORTUNITY
Are you highly organised, great with communication, and interested in building a career in sales and wholesale? As a Wholesale Admin Assistant, you will be playing a key role in supporting our Wholesale team and building strong relationships with our Key Accounts globally.
You will be involved in a variety of tasks, from processing orders, arranging product samples, and uploading imagery, to preparing trade reports and supporting Account Managers with meetings and upselling opportunities.

The role is Monday - Friday 9am-5pm. You'll enjoy the exciting buzz of our friendly office in Banbury, Oxfordshire three times a week on average with the flexibility to work from home for the remaining two days.
