Supply Chain Customer Service Representative
The Customer Service Team is a vital part of the Sales Team. The primary responsibility of the Customer Service (“CS”) Team is to support the sales representatives and, in turn, the customers of our client. The representatives are the chief source for order generation. Once an order has been taken and submitted to CS by the sales team, CS becomes the internal advocate for our customer by processing the order through the CRM/accounting system, placing the order with our client's internal manufacturing team, or in some cases directly with the manufacturer, coordinating the shipment of finished goods with our client’s internal shipping team, and ensuring accounting has all the data required for invoicing.
