Coordinate the collection and delivery of international and domestic samples. Support Account Managers and the Asia team to meet CP deadlines.

5. Order & Inventory Management

6. Operational Projects & Office Support

Participate in operations improvement projects and initiatives. Support facilities management (e.g., liaising with site workers, arranging repairs). Perform ad hoc office tasks (e.g., purchasing supplies, obtaining quotes).

Typical Daily Tasks

Request and manage shipping documents for outgoing orders. Provide accurate shipping marks and documentation to support logistics. Schedule deliveries with freight partners and customers. Update systems (Sage) based on updates from account or supply teams. Maintain trackers for freight and targets. Verify incoming invoices from suppliers, customers, and logistics partners. Arrange collections and deliveries for product samples. Assist with miscellaneous operational and facility-related needs.
