  • Supporting continuous improvement initiatives and contributing to the ongoing development of the Stock Planning function

About You

Ideally, you will have:

  • Previous experience in a Stock Control or wider supply chain environment
  • Strong Excel and systems skills, with the ability to analyse data and present clear insights
  • A collaborative, proactive approach with the ability to build effective working relationships
