Description
We're looking for a sharp, organised Inventory & Procurement Specialist to sit at the heart of our supply chain. You'll own demand forecasting, purchase order management, and supplier relationships — working closely with the Head of Inventory & Supply Growth to keep our global stock flowing smoothly across channels and markets.
This is a hands-on role with real ownership. You'll be the person who spots a stock risk before it becomes a problem, chases a supplier before a deadline slips, and keeps our inventory data clean and actionable.
What You'll Do
Demand Planning
- Build and maintain demand forecasts across SKUs and markets, using sales data, seasonality, and promotional calendars
- Monitor stock levels daily and flag risks — low stock, overstock, and slow movers — before they become expensive problems
- Work with the e-commerce and sales teams to factor in campaigns, launches, and market trends into forecasting
Purchasing & Order Management
- Raise and manage purchase orders from creation through to goods receipt
- Track lead times, shipment progress, and delivery confirmations — following up proactively when things slip
- Maintain accurate PO records in Odoo (or equivalent ERP) and ensure inventory data is always up to date
Supplier Relationships
- Serve as a day-to-day contact for key suppliers — building reliable working relationships
- Negotiate pricing, lead times, and minimum order quantities where appropriate
- Identify and onboard backup suppliers to reduce single-source risk
Reporting & Process
- Produce regular inventory and purchasing reports for the Head of Inventory & Supply Growth
- Identify inefficiencies in current processes and suggest practical improvements
- Support audits, stock counts, and reconciliations as needed
