Company Description
Zea Ltd supplies raw materials to the pet, animal and aquaculture industries in the UK & Ireland.
Role Description
This is a full-time role and will be mainly based in the office (10 miles from Scarborough). Please only apply if you live locally (Yorkshire). I am seeking a junior logistics team member to join a new business. It would be great if you have some market knowledge, but if you want to get into commodity/grain/organics logistics and trading, then this would be an ideal step, as full training will be given.
As a logistics assistant, you will be helping to execute trades and manage the logistical side (liaising with hauliers/stores). It is a small business so you have to be happy to be involved in trading/accounts and logistics. You need to be happy to pick up the phone to new customers and also go and meet customers in person.
If you wanted to move into trading, then this could build up to managing your book of business and opening new markets.
Pay will depend upon the level of experience, and there is also a company bonus scheme.
