At Dalefoot Farm we produce a range of premium quality composts made using natural materials providing our customers with strongly sustainable alternatives to peat. We believe there are no other growing mediums like them in the country. Our products are sold direct via mail order and also now stocked in over 175 garden centres across the UK.
We are looking for someone to join our rapidly growing family business, where your focus will be organising the dispatch of orders via several couriers and effectively communicating with our sales and dispatch teams. You will also provide customer service support alongside our sales team.
