* Handle customer queries and resolve issues professionally.
* Identify opportunities to grow and develop existing accounts.
* Support renewals, pricing reviews, upselling and cross-selling.
* Maintain accurate customer records, activity notes and pipeline information.
* Work closely with sales, operations, finance, procurement and service teams.
* Ensure customer actions and commitments are followed through from start to finish.
What We’re Looking For
* Strong communication and relationship-building skills.
* Confident and professional when dealing with customers.
* Excellent organisation and ability to manage multiple priorities.
* Good commercial awareness and an interest in developing this further.
* Proactive approach to problem solving.
* Strong attention to detail.
* Comfortable using Microsoft Office and learning CRM/business systems.
* Ability to work independently and as part of a wider team.
Previous experience within customer service, sales, account coordination, hospitality, commercial catering, facilities, equipment, construction or another B2B environment would be beneficial. xjnqpsq
