Sales Support Coordinator (Client-Facing | Admin-Heavy | Organised Genius Wanted)
Southampton | £30,000 - £35,000 | Office-Based with Some Flexibility
A brilliant opportunity has arisen with a fast-growing modular building company with a global footprint and a small UK base in Southampton.
This is not a hard-sell, KPI-chasing sales role. Far from it. Think of it as the organisational heartbeat of the UK business - the calm, friendly, brilliantly on-it person who keeps everything (and everyone) moving in the right direction.
If you love being the one who "just sorts it", remembers everything, follows up before anyone asks, and makes chaos look well organised… this is your moment.
Working closely with a collaborative international team, you'll be the face of the Southampton office and the trusted link between UK clients and global operations.
What you'll actually be doing:
* Being the friendly first point of contact for UK clients - warm check-ins, quick responses, and making people feel genuinely looked after
* Keeping the BD pipeline in order and up to date
* Researching planning applications and construction projects
* Logging leads, tracking opportunities, and ensuring nothing is missed
* Keeping the CRM clean, accurate and genuinely useful
* Scheduling meetings, prepping light proposals and supporting the wider BD process
* Acting as the bridge between UK clients and global teams - translating needs, updates and expectations smoothly
* Attending client meetings with leadership support, taking notes, and following up so nothing is forgotten
What this role is NOT:
* Cold calling marathons
* Pressure-heavy closing targets
* "Bring your own pipeline or perish" energy
* Managing teams or commercial P&L responsibility
The kind of person who will thrive here:
* 2-4 years' experience in coordination, client support, admin, or account support roles
* Naturally organised with strong attention to detail
* Friendly, confident communicator - on the phone, in meetings, and via email
* Proactive follow-up instincts and strong ownership of tasks
* Comfortable working in a small, growing office with real responsibility
* Interest in construction / modular buildings (or happy to learn)
* Mandarin Chinese is a bonus, not essential
Why this role is a great opportunity:
You'll have autonomy, visibility, and real ownership - without being in a high-pressure sales environment. You'll see projects from first enquiry through to delivery and become a key part of how the UK business runs day to day.
It's structured enough to feel stable, but varied enough that no two days are the same.
