• Raise and track purchase orders for external suppliers, coordinating timelines for materials such as mesh, powder coating, and canvas stitching
• Support bookkeeping activities including invoicing, collecting 25% deposits from private customers, and following up on balance payments upon project completion
• Handle incoming phone calls from customers and provide general client support
• Monitor order timelines across internal manufacturing and external suppliers to ensure on-time delivery and installation readiness
