· Be the go-to person regarding all financial questions at LNF. This could include questions about taxes, laws, benefits and so on from our employees.

Sales Associate part:
LNF doesn’t do any active sales such as calling to customers to convince them to buy our products. They sell themselves. The sales associate part includes:
· Receiving of Request for Quotations.
· Sort out all technical questions before proceeding with a quotation. No technical background is required, and you will learn to answer most. The rest are forwarded to our Engineers.
· Generate and send quotations
· Receiving and processing of POs. Collaborate with the Production Department to ensure the parts are built.
· Sort out export control issues. LNF only sells to peaceful applications. Investigate actual end-use.
· Once Production Department has produced the parts, they are sent out to the customer by the Sales Department.
· Handle the paperwork, including invoicing after sending the goods.
We offer a position with a lot of variation in work tasks and responsibilities. As a member of a small company, we all do a little bit of everything. It could be anything from watering our vegetable garden to talking to the Swedish authorities about exporting rules.
