Managing internal workflows so nothing gets lost, chasing supplier quotes, updating the sales team on progress, and flagging delays before they become problems. Supporting procurement activities, including raising purchase orders and tracking deliveries. 3. CRM & Pipeline Administration Maintaining meticulous records in the CRM (Dynamics) logging every quote, every follow-up, every lost deal reason.
Supporting the outside sales team with pipeline reporting, activity tracking, and opportunity management. Proactively chasing outstanding actions from both customers and suppliers. 4. Sales Support & Customer Experience Handling inbound enquiries where appropriate, qualifying leads before passing to the outside team.
