Description
Sales Administrator
Northampton | £27,000 - £29,000 DOE | Temporary to Permanent
Are you an experienced Sales Administrator looking for a role where you can take ownership, work closely with customers and become a valued part of a growing business?
We're working with an established manufacturing business based in Northampton to recruit a Sales Administrator into a brand-new position created due to continued growth.
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys the commercial side of administration - speaking to customers, supporting sales activity, keeping things organised and making sure opportunities don't get missed.
You'll work closely with the sales team, supporting the day-to-day sales operation while also having the opportunity to get involved in areas such as reporting, customer analysis and some general business administration.
There is a small amount of finance administration within the role, including supporting with invoices and purchase orders, but the main focus is Sales Administration and customer support.
Why is this a great opportunity?
This is much more than a traditional sales admin position.
The role has been created from scratch, meaning you'll have the opportunity to put your own stamp on it, improve processes and take ownership rather than simply following the same routine every day.
The business is well established but continues to grow, offering the successful candidate the chance to develop alongside the company and build a long-term career.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You'll be joining a small, friendly team where people work closely together and everyone has an important part to play. If you're someone who likes being busy, getting involved and seeing the impact of your work, this could be a really good fit.
Who are they looking for?
We're looking for someone with previous experience in Sales Administration, Sales Support, Customer Service Administration or a similar commercial role.
You'll Ideally Be
- Confident dealing with customers over the phone and email.
- Experienced in supporting a sales team and managing customer enquiries.
- Comfortable preparing quotations, processing orders and keeping customer information up to date.
- Confident using Sage - this is essential.
- Organised and able to manage multiple priorities.
- Naturally proactive - someone who sees what needs doing and gets on with it.
- Commercially minded, with an interest in customers and sales.
- Confident working with spreadsheets, data and reports.
- Happy to get involved with some basic finance administration when required.
You do not need to be an accounts professional. We're primarily looking for a strong Sales Administrator with Sage experience, a confident telephone manner and the right attitude.
What's on offer?
This is a temporary-to-permanent opportunity, initially joining on a temporary basis for approximately 3 months, with the intention of moving into a permanent position following a successful placement and mutual suitability.

The person we're looking for
If you're a good Sales Administrator who enjoys speaking to customers, supporting sales and being proactive, we'd like to hear from you.
We're not looking for someone who needs to tick every box. More importantly, we're looking for someone with the right attitude, commercial mindset and willingness to get involved.
