Operations & Logistics Administrator

Are you an organised administrator who enjoys keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes?

We're recruiting on behalf of a well-established food manufacturing business looking to add a Customer Operations & Logistics Administrator to its busy operations team. This is a varied position where you'll play a key role in supporting customer orders, coordinating logistics administration and ensuring accurate documentation throughout the order fulfilment process.

Working closely with Customer Operations, Logistics, Dispatch and Production, you'll be an important part of ensuring customers receive an excellent service from order through to delivery.

The Role

No two days are quite the same. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Maintaining accurate customer records, order information and operational databases.
  • Supporting the administration of outbound deliveries, including transport documentation, courier bookings and dispatch paperwork.
  • Assisting with customer order processing, acknowledgements and order validation when required.
  • Working alongside internal departments to ensure delivery documentation is completed accurately and on time.
  • Producing and updating operational reports, trackers and performance information.
  • Coordinating sample dispatches and ensuring supporting paperwork is completed correctly.
  • Investigating delivery queries by gathering relevant information and supporting issue resolution.
  • Monitoring recurring service or delivery issues and highlighting trends to management.
  • Assisting with maintaining and updating operational procedures and administrative processes.
  • Providing administrative support across the wider Customer Operations function during busy periods and holiday cover.
  • Updating information within ERP, CRM or business systems to ensure data remains accurate.
  • Offering reception and front-of-house support when required, including welcoming visitors, answering incoming calls and assisting with general office administration.

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.
