You will work closely with Sales, Operations, Purchasing, and Finance, ensuring effective communication across departments, resolving issues quickly, and implementing improvements that drive both customer satisfaction and commercial success.

A key focus of the role will be supporting the business through its transition to Microsoft Dynamics Business Central, alongside the ongoing development of CRM systems and business processes.

  • Identify opportunities to improve efficiency and streamline workflow.

  • Support and drive business change initiatives, including systems implementation and process transformation.

  • Work collaboratively with internal stakeholders to ensure seamless communication and service delivery.

  • Monitor performance, establish KPIs, and create accountability across the team.

  • Analyse operational challenges and implement practical, scalable solutions.

  • Champion a culture of continuous improvement throughout the business.

  • Support the ongoing development and optimisation of business systems and technology.

Ideal Experience & Skills
  • Proven experience managing and developing office-based teams.

  • Strong leadership and people management capabilities.

  • Experience within customer service, commercial operations, sales support, or order processing environments.

  • Excellent organisational and problem-solving skills.

  • Commercial awareness with the ability to balance customer needs and business objectives.

  • Experience creating and implementing processes, procedures, and operational improvements.

  • Confidence managing change and driving business improvement initiatives.

  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills.
