Careers
Administration
Without a sale we are nothing - but a sale poorly administered may lose repeat business. A small back office team of administrators carries out the vital function to support each location through accurate and timely administration and promptly dealing with queries from customers & suppliers.
External Sales
Developing new customers is a key role of external sales, alongside servicing existing customer requirements. With information about products and applications at their fingertips, sales professionals are critical to our success.
Inventory Controller
Inventory management and purchasing are vital functions of a service driven business. Financial accountability for profit and the investment in inventory give this role an added significance in EWL Electrical's business philosophy. Effective communication with fellow staff and suppliers' representatives is a key ability, as are professional negotiating skills.
Manager
EWL Electrical has a highly decentralised operating philosophy in which each location runs as an autonomous business or profit centre. Consequently, the Manager has overall responsibility for personnel, sales, inventory control, warehousing, distribution and administration.
This position would appeal to independent, entrepreneurial-minded people who would enjoy the challenge of 'running their own business'.
Telephone Sales
Many of our customers choose to do business by telephoning the internal sales people who, with a combination of thorough product knowledge and top-class communication skills, are able to develop and satisfy the customers' requirements quickly and efficiently. Telephone sales can also act as a liaison between our external sales staff, our customers and the internal operations in order to provide exceptional customer service.
Trade Counter Sales
The trade counter is a unique selling opportunity in our business. A combination of good communication skills and product knowledge enables the counter sales person to assess customer needs quickly and fulfil them accurately. Responsibilities also include display merchandising and promotions.
Warehouse Operations
Quality customer service puts EWL Electrical ahead of the competition. An efficient, well organised warehouse operation supports customer service through the process of receiving and storing deliveries from our suppliers and accurately picking customer orders for onward shipping and delivery mainly by our own delivery vehicles.
