Do you want to work within a friendly, supportive team where progression and development are encouraged? Our client is a leading supplier of branded and own label stationery to large organisations in the retail, office products and education sectors. Based in modern offices right in the centre of England near Meriden, close to Coventry. Due to expansion a new opportunity has arisen for a Supply Chain Administrator to join their supply chain team to support them in managing stock levels and to maximise stock availability and customer service. The role is full time and is office-based 5 days per week.
Working closely with suppliers and 3rd party logistics providers, the successful candidate will be responsible for the input of sales and purchase orders, attending "Teams" meetings, and keeping the stock systems updated with accurate and timely information. The ideal candidate will have experience in working in supply chain / logistics and as the role will involve extensive use of spreadsheets a good working knowledge of Excel is a pre-requisite as is a good understanding of all Microsoft Office products. Sage 200 experience would be advantageous but not necessary.
You will need to be a results-focussed team player who has good customer service skills and an eye for detail. We are looking for someone who has a common-sense approach to problem solving with strong commercial awareness.
- Manage day to day communications with suppliers and place purchase orders and expedite them to ensure they are delivered on time.
- Input sales orders, arrange delivery slots and produce relevant paperwork for deliveries, liaise with warehouse partners to ensure deliveries are made on time.
- Update internal databases (Sage 200 and excel based trackers) to reflect latest information.
Key Skills
- Excel Skills
- Strong administration skills
- Attention to detail
- Good communication skills
