Supply Chain Assistant - #2148245

Are you analytical, organised and eager to build a career in supply chain, planning or operations?

Our client are looking for a motivated individual to join their Supply Chain team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone at the start of their career who enjoys working with data, solving problems and coordinating information.

Previous supply chain experience is not required. Instead, they're looking for someone with strong analytical ability, attention to detail and a genuine interest in learning how products, materials and operations come together to support customers.

You'll receive training and support while gaining exposure to planning, purchasing, production and supplier management, providing an excellent foundation for a long-term career in supply chain.

You'll support the day-to-day operation of the supply chain function, helping to ensure materials, schedules and information are in place to keep the business running efficiently.

Key responsibilities include:

• Supporting the creation and maintenance of production plans and schedules.
• Monitoring stock and material availability and highlighting potential issues.
• Updating reports, spreadsheets and operational performance data.
• Assisting with purchasing activities and supplier communications.
• Helping to ensure materials are available when required for production.
• Supporting stock management and stocktake activities.
• Working closely with colleagues across Production, Sales, Purchasing and Operations.
• Assisting with continuous improvement projects and new business processes.
• Providing general administrative support to the Supply Chain team.

You could be a recent graduate, college leaver, someone looking to move into supply chain from another discipline, or an administrator with strong analytical skills who wants a more commercial career path.

You'll ideally have:

• Strong numerical and analytical skills.
• Excellent attention to detail.
• Confidence using Microsoft Excel and other Microsoft Office applications.
• The ability to learn new systems and processes quickly.
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
• A logical and problem-solving mindset.
• Good communication skills and the confidence to work with people across different teams.
• A positive attitude and willingness to learn.
