- staff scan through the books with an app that tells us if there is individual value
- some books are then listed on site, while most are sent to our Yorkshire warehouse to be listed and stored
Show more +10 - sell Books Ltd is looking for an talented and enthusiastic self-starter to take over the running of our London office and warehouse
- you'll be in charge of a team of staff, as well as handling supplier relations, admin, and spending at least half of the time working with books, researching what's worth selling and bundling others
- the books for bundles are then either sorted into author or category lots unless damaged
- the London office is also the base for a team of four book dealers who go out and purchase good books directly and bring them back to the London office to be listed
- and general HR, motivation and staff retention/hiring duties
- the books that we receive in bulk are brought in by our driver or by removal companies, then a scanner will do the 'pre-scan' process on books with barcodes
- there's potential for more roles too and making the job your own, as long as the changes improve the bottom line
- books that are accepted go into one box, rejects either go into recycling or into a basket for sorting into bundles, and any without barcodes go into a different basket which management currency process
- there's room for figuring out new potential bundles from this process and would suit someone who is nerdy about books and knows popular authors like the back of their hands
- this role also involves some admin tasks - book keeping, running a script on some spreadsheets for the repricing software, target sheets, calling charity suppliers to see if they have books ready for us, etc
