Contract Furniture Commercial Coordinator in West Bromwich

Join a leading UK manufacturer of bespoke contract furniture.

Established in 1983, Jameson Seating manufactures high quality bespoke furniture for hotels, luxury care homes, retirement living, restaurants, bars, leisure venues and commercial interiors throughout the UK.

As our business continues to evolve, we're strengthening our commercial team and are looking for an organised, commercially minded individual to help support our continued growth.

This isn't a traditional administration role.

You'll become involved in every stage of a project, from the initial enquiry through to delivery and installation, working with customers across the UK and suppliers throughout Europe.

If you're looking for a varied role with genuine career progression and the opportunity to become an important part of a growing business, we'd love to hear from you.

The Role

Working alongside our Directors and commercial team, you'll play a key role in delivering furniture projects from enquiry through to completion.

Your responsibilities will include

• Preparing furniture quotations and cost estimates.
• Sourcing products from our network of UK and European manufacturers.
• Liaising with overseas suppliers to obtain quotations, technical information and lead times.
• Negotiating supplier pricing and ensuring the best commercial outcome for the business.
• Managing supplier relationships and monitoring orders through to delivery.
• Coordinating imported products alongside our own UK manufacturing.
• Ordering fabrics, finishes and bought-in furniture.
• Communicating with customers throughout their projects via telephone, email and site visits.
• Visiting customer sites to measure up, discuss projects and attend meetings when required.
• Working closely with our factory team to ensure projects are delivered on time.
• Assisting with project administration, scheduling and customer support.
• Learning our estimating, manufacturing and commercial processes with a view to taking on greater responsibility over time.

No two days are the same.

One day you could be obtaining prices from European manufacturers, the next visiting a customer on site before returning to prepare quotations for a luxury care home or hotel project.

About You

We're looking for someone who is commercially aware, organised and eager to learn.

This role is based full time at our West Bromwich office.

We're looking for someone who enjoys working as part of a close knit team and is keen to learn from colleagues across both our commercial office and manufacturing facility.

Ideally you'll have experience in one or more of the following

• Manufacturing
• Construction
• Commercial interiors
• Furniture
• Fit-out
• Building products
• Project coordination
• Purchasing

You will also be

• Highly organised with excellent attention to detail.
• A confident communicator, both in person and over the telephone.
• Comfortable dealing with customers and suppliers at all levels.
• Numerate and confident working with costs and quotations.
• Able to manage multiple projects and priorities.
• Proficient in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel.
• Keen to learn and develop within a growing business.
• Happy travelling throughout the UK when required.

A full UK driving licence is essential.

An interest in furniture, design, interiors or manufacturing would be advantageous, although full product training will be provided.

We're looking for someone who wants to build a long term career rather than simply find their next job.

As your knowledge and confidence develop, you'll have the opportunity to take on increasing commercial responsibility, including:

• Managing your own customer accounts.
• Carrying out site surveys and project consultations.
• Preparing commercial proposals and specifications.
• Building relationships with designers, contractors and end users.
• Identifying new business opportunities.
• Developing into a customer-finding commercial and business development role.

This is an opportunity to learn every aspect of a successful manufacturing business while working alongside an experienced and supportive team.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary based on experience.
• Genuine long-term career progression.
• Full training on our products, systems and manufacturing processes.
• A varied role where no two days are the same.
• The opportunity to work with customers across the hospitality, care and commercial sectors.
• Company pension.
• Free on‑site parking.

If you're ambitious, commercially minded and enjoy working in a fast paced environment where you can make a real difference, we'd love to hear from you

We routinely work 8-4pm Monday to Thursday finishing at around 3pm on a Friday.

While this is a full time, office based role, we understand that life doesn't always fit neatly around working hours.

We're a family run business and believe in treating people like adults.

If you need to attend an appointment, do the school run, or leave early occasionally, we'll always do our best to be flexible.

What matters to us is commitment, communication and getting the job done.

In return, you'll be part of a supportive team where people help each other and everyone is trusted to do their best work.

The role is based in our West Bromwich office because the learning happens here, working alongside experienced colleagues, collaborating with the commercial team and spending time in our factory to understand how our furniture is designed and manufactured.
