Our operation in Rosslare has now been running for 9 months and we’re growing, with further development planned!  We are looking for an Operations Administrator to be part of that growth.  That’s where you come in…

 

You’ll need to be a strong administrator who can communicate with lots of colleagues including the Vessel Loading Officer, Customer Services and Check In Teams.  Spinning lots of plates (not literally – we won’t expect you to do that!) you’ll be writing the loading lists for vessel departures, assisting with the loading and discharging of vehicles and reporting any damages – which shouldn’t take too much of your time!  You’ll need to be updating the IT system, so we need you to be able to pick up new programmes quickly. 

 

Due to the nature of our business, it’s not a Monday to Friday gig.  You’ll need to be on hand to work various shift patterns and available at weekends and to work late shifts.  Our busiest departures are Friday and Saturday nights, and our team all share these shifts, so you’ll need to be flexible.

 

Talking of the team, they are dedicated to ensuring that the vessels are full, depart on time and our customers are consistently given the best service possible.  We need you to be able to think and act quickly to uphold the great feedback we already receive.

 

Salary - 26,000 30,000 EUR

• Pension: Opportunity to join our Company Pension Scheme after successful completion of probation   
• Health Plan with HSF –Includes benefits like money back on dentistry and glasses etc.
• Free ferry travel for up to 4 guests between Dover and Calais / Newcastle and Amsterdam with no limit on trips
