Working closely with the father-son founders and another office staff, you'll start by mastering sales queries and customer support (email, phone and live chat), plus organising dispatches, stock, factory management and wide range of varied tasks in running a small business.
Growing fast every year, there's a real potential to become an integral part of our small business and assist with growth and marketing plans too.
