The Operations and Logistics team, based in our offices in Richmond, Surrey, take responsibility for ensuring that the chemical and feed products which sell are shipped, packed and transported from our suppliers to the appropriate ports, and then onto our customers by road, air and sea as necessary.

The Company is currently investing in a multi-million pound project to build a completely new shipping terminal and warehouse facility at Canada Dock in Liverpool. This means that things are about to get busier, and we need to expand the team!

You will need the energy and enthusiasm to learn fast and operate well in a small company environment. Happy to "roll up your sleeves" and pitch-in with the team, you will also be confident to use your initiative to overcome challenges and meet deadlines in an efficient manner.

As well as the commercial experience and skills outlined above you will have to rely on great administration and organisational skills to keep the process flowing, dealing with queries, sorting out orders, customs paperwork and invoicing accurately and in a timely manner.
