We’re on the lookout for a Supply Chain Controller to join the believe housing team on a permanent basis.
This is an exciting opportunity if you want to make a real difference. We believe in life without barriers. If you aren’t sure you meet 100% of the criteria but think you would be great in this role, don’t let that stop you; we would love to hear from you. We're interested in your skills, knowledge, and experience, as well as your personal values. We're committed to supporting everyone here at believe housing and being an inclusive organisation.
Although this role is advertised as full-time, we will consider part-time, job share, and alternative working pattern proposals where possible.
We’re a family-friendly, flexible employer, and we encourage everyone to ‘work the believe way’. For us, this means keeping things simple, doing more of what matters, and removing tasks and processes that don’t add value.
Where and when you work is flexible depending on the demands of your role, our customers’ needs, and your individual work preference (as agreed with your manager).
Our offices are based in Seaham and Bishop Auckland and although we work flexibly, it is envisaged that this role will require both an offsite and onsite presence as per business need when required.
About the Role
The Supply Chain Controller will work in conjunction with Senior Managers and Team Leads to ensure that believe Property Repairs Team is developed as a flagship service that is great, consistent, and modern. Provide coordination and support on Property Repairs supply chain requirements to deliver a high-quality service whilst balancing cost, quality, and risk.
The successful candidate will:
1. Deliver end-to-end third-party contract solutions to ensure full coordination and support of operational delivery across the Property Repairs Teams, particularly supply chain and waste provision.
2. Develop and build relationships with third-party suppliers and business streams to ensure a smooth and efficient transition of services provided and any issues affecting delivery are highlighted and acted upon to minimize the impact on operational delivery, productivity, and customer satisfaction.
3. Ensure that materials are fit for purpose, available, and reflective of the work undertaken within Property Repairs; van stock is available and replenished regularly, and special orders are tracked and represent value for money.
4. Supervise, procure, and manage supplies for tools, equipment, uniforms, and PPE to maintain safety standards and operational efficiency.
5. Assist with the analysis of trends in service delivery and ensure that all contractual key performance indicators are met or exceeded to deliver a first-class service within a right first-time ethos.
