Sales Coordinator

ROLE PURPOSE The Sales Coordinator supports the sales organisation by owning the administrative backbone of the sales cycle — responding to customer enquiries, issuing quotations, supporting invoicing, and ensuring smooth communication between customers and internal departments. The role is the connective tissue between the field sales team, the warehouse and the customer.
