Sales Administrator

Your new company

My client is a global manufacturing business based on the Ellesmere Port Industrial Estate. The role is based in the Customer Service Team to support with a backlog of work and to cover several pre-planned holidays in the team! This is an expanding team who need technical administrative support with an immediate start!

Your new role

Sitting as part of a busy customer service function which processes technical sales orders in the millions per order, your role will be to support the customer account managers and representatives by picking up all the back office administration to ensure swift and prompt order management. You will be supporting with sales order inputting, responding to customer enquiries via email regarding order updates, product queries, or order amendments. You will be responsible for other back office administration, such as freight order claim backs, managing the electronic filing system, and escalating discrepancies as soon as they are identified. This is a fast-paced environment which uses a SAP based ERP. You will be based on-site full-time in Ellesmere Port with access to ample free on-site parking, excellent on-site amenities and will be working from 9am - 5:30pm Monday to Friday. Some flexibility around the working hours can be considered.

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.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

What you'll need to succeed

Whilst manufacturing or engineering industry experience would be ideal for this post, other industries will be considered as long as there has been a technical sales support aspect to the post. You will be using your strong administration skills on a daily basis to prioritise your workload to coincide with changing demands for customer orders.

ERP system experience is essential for this post, with SAP being preferred, but all ERPs will be considered. Due to the intricacies of the orders and product numbers, you will have outstanding attention to detail and be able to catch errors before they make a commercial impact. You will be used to working with various MS Office packages, and feel confident working with MS Excel. Due to the location, this role does require someone with access to their own vehicle as it is not accessible via public transport.
