International automotive company is looking for a talented commercial support officer.

Who will help us to further improve our customer satisfaction?                                  

We are looking for an organized colleague who will coordinate and streamline Customer Requests in the most customer satisfactory and effective way. Customer Requests pop-up in our commercial contacts, mostly after a sale, and can be quite divers; a request for additional information or documents, an issue during transport, the handling a damage claim, etc.  At this moment we are processing such requests in different ways in different departments in our company.

With this new position, the goal is to have a coordinator with a birds-eye-view. Someone who is not only able to get an issue solved, but someone who can also do root-cause-analysis when problems repeat. The Customer Service Coordinator will have first and foremost a coordinating role. She/he will make sure that we -as a company, and subsequential our departments- are responding to customer requests to the best of our abilities.

Our Sales Traders focus on selling new and used cars to our B2B customers and in some cases to end-users. They are and will stay the first point of contact for our customers. Our Support department plays a central role in the purchase and sale of vehicles, streamlining the flow of vehicles and documents from supplier to our customers. The Support team takes care of all back-office activities. Our support-officers and buyers are in direct contact with our suppliers. Our Logistics department is in contact with transporters. The Customer Service Coordinator will interact and coordinate between these departments, and will act as a liaison between our commercial team (Sales Traders) and our back-offices (Support and Logistics).

Although you will be a part of our Support team, you will thus work closely together with our Sales Traders on a daily basis. We are approaching the fulfilment of this vacancy with a “customer-first-mentality”. We expect you to play an important role in the improvement of our customer service levels. This position is new in our company. Because of that, we are not just looking for a colleague who wants to fulfil the job. No, we are really looking for somebody who is able to design and craft this position together with us.

In short, we offer a challenging position for an organized, commercial person, who does not necessarily aspire to be in direct contact with clients, supplier or partners. Instead of that you work with your colleagues to deliver the best service possible. We are looking for someone who has the ability to be the (co-)architect of a position that is not (yet) completely described.

You will have an integral part in setting up our new customer service structure. You will help to create and improve the platform on which we will manage our Customer Requests.

You need to be able to handle challenging requests and work closely together with the Support team and other colleagues to find the best solutions. You will be supported in your role by the Team Lead Sales and the Operations Manager.
