About the Role
You will act as the central point of contact for clients, suppliers, and partners throughout the moving process, from the initial enquiry through to delivery.

• Approve supplier invoices and prepare sales invoices
• Ensure accurate data entry and reporting within operational systems
• Maintain excellent communication and client service standards

What We're Looking For

• Previous experience in move management, logistics, removals, relocation, or freight forwarding
• Fluency in French and English, both spoken and written (essential)
• Strong communication and organisational skills
• Confident dealing with clients, suppliers, and internal teams
• A proactive problem-solver with strong attention to detail
• Comfortable working independently and managing multiple priorities

Why Apply

• Competitive, flexible salary for the right candidate
• Opportunity to work in an international, people-focused environment
• Hybrid flexibility - mostly remote with occasional office presence in West Kent
• Varied and rewarding role with autonomy and responsibility
