In the purchasing department, you will deal with enquiries, compare quotes, and place orders. In the sales department, you will, under the supervision of a project manager, prepare quotes and calculations or make enquiries, for example using the internet, into the current market situation. In the bookkeeping department, you will book payments in and out.
