Full job description

Dive into Global Logistics as Our Imports Assistant!

Location: Leyland HQ, Lancashire | Hours: 37.5 | 08:30 AM - 16:30 PM | Monday to Friday

Are you meticulously organised, a natural multitasker, and ready to thrive in a fast-paced environment? Whether you already have logistics experience or you are looking to launch a brand-new career, we want to hear from you!

VictorianPlumbing.co.uk, the UK's largest bathroom retailer, is seeking a diligent and proactive Imports Assistant to join our busy team at our Leyland Headquarters.

No experience in imports? No problem. While we welcome applications from experienced candidates, it is absolutely not essential. For us, it’s all about your drive, attitude, and core skills—full training will be provided to give you all the tools you need to succeed.

What You'll Be Doing: The Heart of the Import Process

You'll be the reliable hub connecting our global suppliers with our UK operations, ensuring a smooth and compliant flow of goods.

Documentation Guru: Prepare, organise, and maintain all vital import documents—invoices, packing lists, and customs paperwork—ensuring everything is accurate and compliant.
Customs & Compliance: Work closely with customs brokers to facilitate speedy and hassle-free customs clearance.
Shipping Coordination: Liaise with shipping companies and freight forwarders to arrange transport and meticulously track shipments from departure to arrival, resolving any potential snags or delays along the way.
Inventory Integration: Ensure seamless documentation of goods received, keeping our inventory systems up-to-date and accurate.
Global Communication: Be the main point of contact for international suppliers, following up on orders and promptly reporting any issues or discrepancies to management.
Problem Solver: Efficiently tackle and resolve issues related to shipping, customs, or damaged/missing goods, ensuring minimum disruption.

Is This You? Your Essential Skills

Because we provide full technical training, we are heavily prioritizing candidates who can demonstrate the following key traits:

Organisation & Multitasking: You love order and can seamlessly juggle multiple shipments, tasks, and deadlines without dropping the ball.
Thriving in a Fast-Paced Environment: You have high energy and stay calm, focused, and positive when things get busy.
Laser Attention to Detail: A critical skill—you spot the small print, discrepancies, and numbers that others miss.
Tech Savvy: You're proficient with Microsoft Office Suite (especially Excel) and are confident learning new systems.
Communication Powerhouse: You can clearly and professionally communicate with a diverse range of internal teams, suppliers, and external partners, both in writing and on the phone.

Why Join Us?

This is a brilliant opportunity to get hands-on experience in the exciting, vital world of international logistics and supply chain with a market-leading e-commerce business.

If you’re ready to step into an essential role where your organizational skills directly impact our success, apply today!
