We’re looking for a friendly, organised and detail-focused person to join the team at Orion Distribution.
We distribute a carefully selected portfolio of bathroom and KBB brands into showrooms and retailers across Northern Ireland, and this role sits right at the centre of the business — supporting customers, processing orders, coordinating with the warehouse and helping keep the day-to-day accounts and purchasing administration running smoothly.
What will you actually be doing?
The role is varied and will include:
- Answering customer calls and emails
- Processing sales orders and raising invoices
- Sending customer statements and assisting with account queries
- Monitoring customer accounts and helping follow up outstanding balances
- Checking stock availability and answering product enquiries
- Liaising with our warehouse team to manage order fulfilment and deliveries
- Keeping customers updated on orders, stock and lead times
- Supporting our retailers and showrooms across Northern Ireland
- Processing supplier purchase orders
- Checking purchase orders against supplier invoices
- Checking supplier pricing, quantities and any discrepancies before invoices are processed
- Liaising with suppliers where invoice or order discrepancies arise
- Keeping purchasing and account records accurate and up to date
- Assisting with basic account reconciliations and general finance administration
- Supporting the sales team with quotations and account information
This would suit someone who enjoys a mix of customer contact, administration and accounts work. You’ll need to be comfortable switching between speaking to customers, processing orders and making sure the figures and paperwork all match behind the scenes.
Who we’re looking for
Previous experience in customer service, sales administration, accounts administration or a similar office-based role is essential.
Experience within bathrooms, plumbing, heating, distribution or the wider KBB industry would be an advantage, but it isn’t essential.
We’d love to hear from someone who is:
- Friendly and confident on the phone
- Highly organised
- Comfortable working with numbers and invoices
- Strong on attention to detail
- Confident spotting discrepancies and following them through
- Comfortable using email, spreadsheets and order/accounting systems
- Able to manage several tasks at once
- Reliable and proactive
- Comfortable dealing with customers, suppliers and colleagues
- Happy working as part of a small, busy team
Why join Orion?

We work with manufacturers and distribute their brands into independent showrooms and retailers throughout Northern Ireland, providing local stock, sales support and customer service.
