Work with suppliers to improve lead times, optimise delivery frequencies and challenge minimum order quantities where appropriate.
Monitor supplier performance through scorecards and regular performance reviews.
Take ownership of a defined portfolio of supplier and product categories, managing purchasing activity whilst ensuring replenishment disciplines and inventory standards are consistently applied across the wider purchasing team.
Identify and rationalise slow-moving, duplicated and commercially unjustified stock lines.

What Success Looks Like:

Within the first 12 months you will have improved stock availability, reduced unnecessary inventory investment, strengthened supplier performance management, improved forecasting, rationalised low-value stock lines and delivered measurable improvements in working capital whilst maintaining excellent customer service. You will have successfully increased the business's utilisation of Microsoft Business Central, implementing scalable, system-driven inventory management processes that improve visibility, consistency and decision making across the organisation. You will also have established ownership of your purchasing categories whilst ensuring best practice and inventory disciplines are consistently adopted across the wider purchasing team.
