  • Collaborative Replenishment: Managing and mentoring the purchasing team to ensure seamless ordering and stock replenishment.
  • Data-Driven Insight: Analysing complex sales and stock data to guide smart, impactful business decisions.
  • Dynamic Allocation: Managing the flow of stock across various locations to ensure it’s always exactly where it needs to be.
  • Supporting Growth: Playing a key role in the success of new product launches, exciting promotions, and seasonal demand planning.
  • System Integrity: Maintaining flawless records within our internal systems and spreadsheets to keep the business running like clockwork.
  • Building Relationships: Liaising with suppliers and internal departments to guarantee timely and efficient deliveries.
  • Operational Excellence: Handling essential planning and administrative tasks to support a high-performing department.

What You’ll Bring

  • Proven Track Record: Solid experience in stock control, planning, or a similar high-responsibility role.
  • Tech Savvy: Familiarity with order management systems (this is a big plus!).
  • Sharp Eyesight: An exceptional attention to detail and a naturally analytical mindset.
  • Organisational Flair: The ability to juggle multiple priorities with ease while staying focused on the finish line.
  • Data Confidence: You feel right at home working with numbers and complex spreadsheets.
  • Team Spirit: Excellent communication skills and a natural ability to collaborate across different departments.
  • A "Can-Do" Attitude: A proactive, solution-oriented approach to every challenge you meet.

What’s In It For You?

  • Fuel Your Day: Enjoy discounted or free food and drinks at our wonderful on-site facilities.
  • Generous Perks: Take advantage of a great employee discount and store-wide savings.
  • Stress-Free Commute: Free on-site parking every day.
