Job Summary
We are seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented Purchaser/Materials Controller person to join a small team. As a Purchaser/Materials Controller, you will be responsible for sourcing, selecting, and purchasing high-quality products at competitive prices. You will be working in a close-knit team to ensure timely delivery of goods and maintaining accurate records. The role is busy and we need someone who can drive a reduction in costs, see supplier reps and negotiate, place forward orders, check stock patterns and turns and ensure they have forward orders in place to meet demand. They have an increasing number of own brand lines which they cannot run out of and the lead times are long. You would need to liaise with sales and forecast for any uptick or downturn in demand, remove redundant products from stock, source new lines, and keep the management appraised of changes in the marketplace.
This is also a seasonal so you need to think ahead to increase stocks...
