Join a UK leading specialist manufacturer and supplier of industrial equipment.

• Source one-off parts, compare supplier pricing, place purchase orders, and track lead times to ensure continuous stock availability.

• Handle goods-in / goods-out: receive incoming deliveries, inspect parts, upload photographs/specifications into the database, and coordinate picking and dispatch.

• Maintain high standards of organization and housekeeping across the stores and parts areas.

What We're Looking For

• Communication & Personality: A confident, personable communicator who enjoys building strong relationships with suppliers, colleagues, and workshop teams alike.

• Proactive & Organized: Highly organized with keen attention to detail, good basic IT skills (MS Excel/Outlook), and the ability to multitask in a varied environment.

• Background or Transferable Skills: Previous experience in parts, stock control, stores, or purchasing (automotive, engineering, or manufacturing) is desirable-but switchers from retail, logistics, trade counters, or general administration with a strong work ethic are encouraged to apply!

• Commercial Mindset: Someone who takes initiative, picks things up quickly, and holds a genuine interest in supporting business growth.

If this sounds of interest, do not hesitate to call (phone number removed) and speak to the hiring consultant, Hazel Luna.
