*This role could either be full time or part time, for the right candidate*
ABOUT THE COMPANY
Our client is an interiors business, working with clients across the region who expect the very best. They are a close knit team, making beautiful products.
ABOUT THE ROLE
This is the engine-room position in our business. You'll be responsible for the full manufacturing workflow – from the moment an order is placed to the moment our fitter steps through a client's front door. That means ordering fabrics, hardware, linings and components; managing supplier relationships; tracking deliveries; coordinating our fitter's diary across a rolling 12-week schedule; and making sure every single moving part lands in the right place at the right time.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Own the end-to-end production pipeline ordering, tracking, chasing and confirming every component for every live order
- Manage our fitter's schedule across a 12-week rolling horizon, juggling lead times, installations and client requirements
- Hold suppliers to account on quality, accuracy and timing – picking up the phone and resolving problems proactively
- Maintain meticulous records of what's been ordered, what's arrived, what's outstanding and what's at risk
- Keep the studio clean, presentable and well-stocked (supplies, hand towels, teabags – the details matter here too)
- Join the team rota for physically checking, dressing and ironing curtains and blinds before installation
- Grow with us as we expand and help us build better systems as we go
QUALIFICATIONS
You might have worked as a studio manager, production co-ordinator, credit controller, construction administrator, or office manager. The specific background matters less than the mindset.
REQUIRED SKILLS
- Tenacious – You chase. You follow up. You don't let things fall through the cracks.
- Phone-First – A phone call is your instinct when something needs resolving – not a last resort.
- Solutions Oriented – Problems don’t phase you. You’re already thinking about the fix.
- Energised Under Pressure – You thrive when it’s busy. Stress sharpens rather than stops you.
- Adaptable – Happy to iron a blind or make a supplier call – often on the same morning.
- Warm & Upbeat – You add to the energy of a small team. People like dealing with you.

We welcome applications from career-changers and returners. We’re a small business doing beautiful work, and the right person will find themselves genuinely indispensable here.
PAY RANGE AND COMPENSATION PACKAGE
Salary: £28,000‑£32,000 per annum (pro‑rata for part‑time). The lower end reflects someone newer to this type of coordination role; the upper end is for someone who arrives with directly transferable experience and can hit the ground running. We review pay at 6 months. Hours: Flexible – we’re open to discussing what works. This role may suit someone with childcare commitments who wants meaningful, skilled work on a schedule that fits their life.
