• Build strong B2B customer relationships and identify opportunities to increase spend, order frequency and product range.
• Support and improve the online D2C customer experience, working effectively across sales, logistics, warehouse, purchasing and finance.
• Outbound calling to dormant accounts and lead follow-up to win new business and grow the sales pipeline.
• Set and monitor meaningful KPIs covering sales, service, order accuracy, conversion, productivity and customer retention.
• Review processes, improve efficiency and ensure CRM, customer and order information remains accurate.
