Schou seeks Product Coordinator - Do It Yourself

-Become the focal point in a quality-driven procurement process – from item creation to delivery.

Are you motivated by following tasks through to completion and making complex processes come together in a higher unity? Do you have a sharp eye for structure and detail? We are growing – and need you who can keep a cool head and top quality when things move fast.

At Schou you will become part of one of the Nordic region's largest trading companies, where daily work is characterized by high tempo, great responsibility and a broad international contact interface. Our products are developed in close collaboration with suppliers in the Far East and sold to some of Europe’s largest retailers.

You will be part of a team that works with some of Schou's biggest and most important customers, where quality, structure and strong collaboration are decisive for success. You will have a central role in ensuring that products, data and processes are handled professionally throughout the flow, while contributing to smooth coordination between suppliers, customers and internal departments.

Your responsibilities

As Product Coordinator you will be an important part of a dedicated procurement team, where your primary responsibility is to ensure that our products safely go through the process from creation to shipment.

You will have a varied daily life with many touchpoints and tasks within product coordination, compliance and quality assurance. The role requires you to be able to prioritize and maintain an overview when many projects and deadlines are in play simultaneously.

Your tasks will include

• Daily communication with foreign suppliers.
• Follow-up on orders, deliveries and deadlines.
• Approval of artwork, packaging and manuals.
• Maintenance of master data and product information.
• Follow-up on product approvals, test reports and compliance-related tasks.
• Close coordination with procurement, quality, compliance, logistics, sales and other relevant departments.
• Contribute to ongoing optimization of processes and workflows.
• Diverse ad hoc tasks.

Your profile

You thrive in a coordinating and administrative role, where structure, quality and collaboration go hand in hand. You are thorough in your work, take responsibility for your tasks and ensure that things are followed through to the end. At the same time you are positive and adaptable, even when priorities change in a busy everyday life.

We imagine that you

• Work systematically, structured and thorough.
• Have an eye for detail and focus on quality.
• Can handle many tasks at once without losing the overview.
• Are a positive and smiling team player who actively contributes to collaboration.
• Thrive with broad contact across departments and suppliers.
• Communicate fluently in English in both writing and speaking.

It would be advantageous if you have experience from procurement, order processing, product coordination or a similar administrative function, but the most important is that you have the desire to learn, develop and become part of a strong team.
