Assist in obtaining supplier quotes, certificates, and compliance documentation (e.g., ISO certifications, product datasheets).
Support onboarding of new suppliers including collection of due‑diligence documents.

Logistics & Delivery Coordination

Track order deliveries and liaise with suppliers, couriers, and the warehouse/stores team to resolve delivery discrepancies.
Help manage returns, replacements, and credit notes in a timely manner.
Maintain delivery schedules and escalate risks of late delivery to the Purchasing Co‑ordinator.

Administrative & Reporting Tasks

Maintain organised digital and physical purchasing files.
Prepare routine purchasing reports, including spend summaries, order status updates, and supplier performance data.
Support stock level reviews and data input for inventory management systems.
Ensure all purchasing activity complies with internal controls, financial procedures, and audit requirements.

Internal Communication

Work with project managers, operations, production, and engineering teams to clarify requirements and ensure purchasing activity supports operational needs.
Communicate order updates, delays, and key supplier information to relevant stakeholders.

Skills, Knowledge & Experience

Essential

Strong administrative skills with excellent attention to detail and accuracy.
Experience in an office or administrative role (preferably within purchasing, supply chain, or operations).

Ability to manage multiple tasks and prioritise effectively in a fast‑paced environment.
Strong communication and interpersonal skills.

Desirable

Experience in a manufacturing, engineering, or turnkey electrical systems business.
