German Speaking Administrator – Trainee Position
Use Your German Every Day – Build a Career in International Sales

Ideal for a Confident Communicator with a Head for Numbers – and Ambition to Match

Are you a native or business-fluent German speaker (C2 level) ready to put your language skills to work and build a real career in international sales? This hands-on trainee role is designed for someone ambitious, communicative, and eager to learn – with structured support every step of the way.

You’ll join a growing company with strong European trade connections, where your German will be used daily with real customers and suppliers. Working from a modern, newly refurbished office, you’ll be mentored by experienced colleagues and given genuine responsibility from day one – not just filing and answering phones. This is a role where motivated people get noticed and progress.

Location: Office-Based, Stourbridge – Accessible from Wordsley, Kingswinford, Brierley Hill, Dudley, Halesowen, Quinton, Wombourne, Kinver, Kidderminster, Wolverhampton, Birmingham and Bromsgrove
Salary: Up to £27,000 per annum (dependent on experience)
Benefits: Generous Holiday Allowance | Workplace Pension | Free On-Site Parking | Comprehensive Training Programme | Flexible Working Options
Hours: Full-Time, Monday to Friday | 8:00am – 4:00pm

Your Responsibilities:

No two days will be the same. As you develop, you’ll get involved in:

• Processing sales orders, invoices and purchase documentation
• Liaising directly with German customers and suppliers in their native language
• Using Excel to support pricing analysis, cost calculations and data reporting – full training provided
• Managing inventory levels and coordinating supplier orders
• Maintaining accurate customer and product databases
• Delivering professional customer service through phone and email correspondence in both German and English

Essential Requirements:

• Native or business-fluent German speaker (C2) – confident and articulate in professional contexts, both written and spoken
• Strong academic foundation – degree qualification preferred, minimum A-level standard
• Solid numeracy skills and a confident working knowledge of Microsoft Excel – comfortable with figures, not just words
• Professional communication abilities in English
• A genuine willingness to learn and grow – meticulous attention to detail and a proactive, can-do attitude
• Team-oriented mindset with strong interpersonal skills

What Sets This Opportunity Apart:

• Structured training with a dedicated mentor – you’ll never be left to figure it out alone
• Contemporary workspace with modern amenities and free parking
• A stable, growing company where hard work is recognised and career progression is a real outcome – not just a promise
