Full job description

Company description

HRH International Exports has been exporting British grocery & confectionery products since 1987. Initially exporting to European markets, but more recently, specializing in supplying wholesale distribution companies in the United States, Canada and the far east.

The company has expanded considerably in recent years, and as a result we are now looking for a proactive, motivated, and detail-focused individual to join our team. This role is central to ensuring the smooth end-to-end process of customer orders — from order placement through to container loading and dispatch.

You’ll work closely with the sales team, warehouse staff, and logistics partners to maintain clear communication, efficient workflows, and timely deliveries. If you enjoy problem-solving, staying organised, and being at the heart of operations, this role could be an excellent fit.

Job Description:

We are looking for a highly organised and motivated Purchasing Coordinator to support the purchasing and supply chain operations of our growing international food and drink wholesale business.

The role will involve supplier communication, stock planning, pricing analysis, invoice checking, order coordination, and helping manage the flow of goods from suppliers through to export shipment.

You will play an important role in ensuring products are purchased competitively, delivered on time, and aligned with customer demand and export schedules.

This position would suit someone who enjoys problem-solving, working with data, negotiating, and managing multiple tasks simultaneously in a fast-paced commercial environment.

Key Responsibilities

Purchasing & Supplier Coordination

Raise and manage supplier purchase orders
Liaise daily with UK food and drink manufacturers and wholesalers
Monitor supplier stock availability, shortages, and lead times
Chase outstanding deliveries and resolve supply issues proactively
Build strong working relationships with suppliers and logistics partners
Compare supplier pricing and identify cost-saving opportunities

Stock & Order Planning

Coordinate stock purchasing in line with customer demand and export schedules
Work closely with sales and warehouse teams to ensure product availability
Assist with forecasting and planning high-volume export orders
Monitor stock levels and highlight potential shortages or overstocks
Ensure accurate product and pricing data is maintained internally

Commercial & Administrative Support

Maintain accurate purchasing records and spreadsheets
Analyse pricing, margins, and supplier promotions
Support management with reporting and operational analysis
Assist with product setup, documentation, and supplier information
Help improve internal systems and operational efficiency

Communication & Problem Solving

Act quickly to resolve supplier delays, stock discrepancies, or logistical issues
Communicate clearly with internal departments to keep operations running smoothly
Work under pressure while maintaining strong attention to detail
Take ownership of tasks and proactively identify improvements

Skills & Attributes

We are looking for someone who is:

Highly organised with strong attention to detail
Comfortable working with numbers, spreadsheets, and large datasets
Motivated, proactive, and eager to learn
Able to manage multiple priorities simultaneously
Commercially aware with good problem-solving ability
Confident communicating with suppliers and colleagues
Able to work independently and use initiative

Experience & Requirements

Graduates and candidates with limited experience are welcome to apply — full training will be provided.

A degree in Business, Supply Chain, Management, Economics, Finance, or a related subject would be advantageous, but attitude and capability are equally important.

Key requirements include:

Excellent Excel and spreadsheet skills
Strong communication and organisational ability
Ability to work accurately under pressure
Good analytical and problem-solving skills
Full UK driving licence preferred
Professional and positive attitude
Ability to work from our Burscough / Ormskirk office full-time

What We Offer

Competitive salary of £30,000 – £32,000+ depending on experience
Strong future earning potential for high performers
Full training and development
Exposure to international trade and global supply chains
A varied and fast-paced role with real responsibility
Supportive small-team environment
Long-term progression opportunities within a growing company

Additional Information

Ability to commute/relocate

Applicants should be able to reliably commute to Burscough / Ormskirk or plan to relocate before starting work.

If this opportunity sounds like a good fit, we’d love to hear from you.

Please submit your CV and a short covering letter to [email protected] outlining your interest in the role.

Interviews will take place End of June / Beginning of July, with an ASAP start available.

Thanks,
