You will support the purchasing and availability of spare parts, working closely with suppliers, our warehouse team and internal departments to maintain excellent service levels.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a successful and growing business where accuracy, organisation and attention to detail are essential.

As a Purchasing Assistant, you will support the effective procurement, inventory control and distribution of spare parts across the business. Working closely with suppliers, warehouse colleagues and internal teams, you will help ensure:

Purchase orders are processed accurately and efficiently.
Spare parts are available when required.

Stock Control & Inventory Management

Complete the daily booking-in of spare parts within the stock management system.
Maintain accurate inventory records and support stock accuracy across the warehouse.
Investigate stock discrepancies, lost items and warehouse queries.
Check delivery notes and goods-in documentation when investigating stock issues.
Ensure spare parts are correctly located within warehouse stock locations.
Support the timely return of parts to suppliers and customers.

Operational Support

Monitor and action shared purchasing inboxes.
Support engineers, customer service teams and internal departments with parts-related queries.
Complete assigned actions within agreed timescales.
Help reduce appointment cancellations caused by parts availability issues.
Support continuous improvement within the purchasing and logistics function.

About You

We are looking for someone who is organised, reliable and able to manage competing priorities while maintaining a high level of accuracy.

You will be comfortable working with suppliers, systems and data, and enjoy solving problems to help keep operations running smoothly.

Essential Skills & Experience

Previous experience within purchasing, procurement, stock control, inventory management, logistics, warehouse administration or a similar role.
Strong organisational and planning skills.
Excellent attention to detail and accuracy.
Ability to prioritise workloads and meet deadlines.
Strong verbal and written communication skills.
Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office applications, including Excel.
Confident using computer systems and learning new software.
A proactive approach to problem-solving.

Desirable Experience

Experience working with suppliers and purchase orders.
Knowledge of stock management and inventory control processes.
Understanding of basic stock accounting principles
Intermediate Microsoft Excel skills.
