· Positive, proactive and solution-focused.
· A strong team player who enjoys working collaboratively.
· Comfortable handling a mix of customer service, administration and sales activities.
Previous experience in customer service, sales or an office-based customer-facing role would be great, but attitude and enthusiasm matter just as much.
