Reporting to the Midlands Regional Manager, the role will take responsibility for internal sales functions and internal sales staff (to be recruited) and will be a key member of a small but busy Sales Office.

Preparation of quotes and orders along with technical enquiries for our mechanical geared motor product range will be key functions, as well as overseeing junior staff and taking responsibility for office supplies, stationary, petty cash etc.

Training

SEW is a global organisation with its Headquarters based in Southern Germany and a UK Head Office based in Normanton Yorkshire.
