Customer Service Coordinator
Wellingborough
Are you organised, curious, and ready to be part of a friendly team in a growing, family-run business? We’re looking for a Customer Service Coordinator to help keep our service operations running smoothly — you’ll be the link between our clients, engineers, and suppliers, making sure jobs progress efficiently from start to finish.
About Us We're Arolite, a nationwide facilities partner helping commercial kitchens run reliably, efficiently and sustainably for some of the UK's best-known brands.
We are proudly family-run, purpose-driven and genuinely invested in the people who work here. We have built a strong reputation over seventeen years, not just for the work we do but for the way we do it, with a national reach and a local heart, built on accountability rather than hierarchy.
About the Role As a Customer Service Coordinator, you’ll play a key role in ensuring our clients receive a professional, responsive, and reliable service. Your responsibilities will include:
- Act as a first point of contact for clients, providing updates and responding to queries.
- Produce client estimates, source, and order spare parts, and liaise with suppliers.
- Proactively follow up on open jobs, ensuring progress through to completion.
- Allocate jobs to engineers and communicate requirements clearly.
- Schedule and coordinate planned maintenance visits.
- Support engineers with the information and resources they need to deliver an excellent service.
- Keep our systems up to date, maintaining accurate records and compliance.
- Produce and maintain client and internal reports.
- Support the wider service team with both routine and ad hoc tasks.
- Provide out of hours support for our clients during evenings and weekends on a rota basis. (Once trained this involves being available to take calls and action them remotely, you do not need to be desk based).
You don't need catering industry experience — we'll teach you what you need to know. A natural curiosity about how things work and excellent people skills will help you thrive.
What You Will Bring - Previous experience in a customer service, administrative or coordination role
- A methodical, organised approach with good attention to detail
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Comfortable using Office 365 and service management tools, and picking up new systems
- Able to juggle tasks, stay calm under pressure, and meet deadlines
- A team player who's ready to learn, adapt, and pitch in where needed
- Comfortable providing out of hours cover on a rota basis after training
What You’ll Get in Return - A varied and interesting role
- Supportive team environment with regular feedback
- Spacious, modern office with free parking
- Competitive salary
- Death in service cover
- An open, honest culture where your ideas are valued
What We Value - A learning mindset — willing to ask questions, make suggestions, and develop
- A focus on outcomes — solving problems, seeing the bigger picture, and delivering quality
- A team spirit — open communication, collaboration, and shared success
