Background

About Lisa Bonnell

I have worked within the logistics/administrative/sales coordinator field for 15 years. I’ve gained my experience in a multi-faceted administration role with Van Essen Instruments. My team spirit and communication skills have proven essential for this career. I strongly believe I would be an asset to your team and am excited about exploring an opportunity with a reputable and established company. At Van Essen Instruments I began as an office assistant to the lab technician seven years ago, but quickly seguewayed into a multi-dimensional role that is ever evolving. I am currently responsible for co-ordinating sales, sales support, logistics, purchasing, AR/AP and office administrator duties. Many of my duties include: purchasing and receiving, FIFO controls, picking and packaging orders, creating shipping documentation, ERP (experience with Exact Global) and data base management, scheduling, recording minutes, scheduling staff for RMA client visits, as well as liaison between departments and crews to name a few. My daily duties include communicating with clients regarding their orders, AR/AP, shipping logistics, purchasing, inventory, inputting sales. Over the course of my time at Van Essen I have been part of teams implementing new RMA procedures, creating training manuals for employees and being a current member of the Health and Safety Committee. A decade with The Waterloo Region Record as Ad Technician and Inside Sales representative for the Classified Department provided me with strong knowledge of print production, bindery, copy proofing, A/R, invoicing, billing, reports, and correspondence with customers in arrears while ensuring positive customer interaction in a fast-paced office. In depth knowledge of print production, exceptional time management skills and strict attention to detail were essential skills in my position of Ad Technician. I am proficient with all Microsoft platforms and use Office/Outlook/Teams daily. The ERP system I have experience with is Exact Global Next, which I have been working with for seven years and in fact trained personal in. Previous to that we used Microsoft affiliated CRM along with Excel and Word. When my sales reps reach their targets or need a creative solution or need a quick resolution, I am proud to go the extra mile for my team. I strongly believe in success as group is success for myself as well!
