Customer Service Executive
Location: Bristol
Salary: £26,000 – £28,000 + Benefits & Career Development
YOU MUST HAVE CURRENT CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE IN AN OFFICE SETTING.
The Opportunity
An established and rapidly developing international business is looking to appoint a Customer Service Executive to join its Bristol-based team.
This position would suit an approachable, organised and commercially aware individual who enjoys building strong customer relationships and working in a collaborative environment.
You will become an important point of contact for customers, supporting them throughout the order journey while also identifying opportunities to generate additional business. The role provides exposure to customer service, sales administration, order processing, and operational coordination.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants more than a traditional customer service position. With a combination of customer interaction, sales activity, order management, and commercial administration, the role offers broad exposure to the business and genuine scope to develop professionally as the organisation continues to grow.
Key Responsibilities
- Act as a first point of contact for customers and suppliers, handling telephone, email, and online enquiries professionally and efficiently.
- Process and maintain customer orders accurately, ensuring information is entered correctly into internal systems and orders progress smoothly.
- Respond to customer enquiries with a commercial mindset, identifying opportunities to recommend products or convert enquiries into sales.
- Work closely with Sales and Operations teams to coordinate customer requirements and ensure agreed service standards are maintained.
- Build positive and professional relationships with customers, providing ongoing support throughout the customer journey.
- Record, review, and communicate customer feedback, resolving issues where possible and escalating more complex matters appropriately.
- Prepare regular summaries of customer activity and contribute sales information for internal planning and review meetings.
- Assist with monitoring customer accounts and provide weekly updates to support the credit management process.
- Maintain accurate records across relevant systems and documentation.
- Support the wider team with general customer service and sales administration activities as required.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
