Part of our successful Wholesale team, reporting to the Head of Business Development, we're looking for a Wholesale Customer Success Manager to be the driving force behind the customer experience for our wholesale partners - across Domestic, RM Williams, R B Sellars, Export and Corporate channels.
This role has become available due to the planned retirement of the current position holder, who will support an extensive handover.
This is a hands-on, customer-facing role for someone who thrives on solving problems, keeping orders moving, and building strong relationships with customers and internal teams alike. You'll be the go-to person for our wholesale customers and agents, managing everything from order entry through to despatch, invoicing, credits, deliveries and returns.

About you

- Strong communication skills and the confidence to work across commercial, finance and operations teams
