About us

Arden Dies is a family run business in Stockport, SK6 7JW. We are collaborative, fast-paced and customer-centric. Founded in 1964 Arden Dies is the UK’s leading die-maker. A family-owned business and provider of cutting and engraving tools, and software for the packaging industry. With a strong reputation for quality and innovation, we support a wide range of box, carton, and label producers. We are a rapidly expanding business who have invested heavily in state-of-the-art equipment enabling us to be at the forefront of cutting and engraving tooling. This is an excellent time to join the company as your experience can only help in the development of the business.

Our greatest strength is our global team, with manufacturing sites in the UK, Poland and the USA and software offices globally. Our team is energetic, innovative, and experienced with a forward-thinking approach to adopting new technologies and ways of working making Arden a great place to work. Our core values of Teamwork, Respect, Innovation and Excellence mean that we care about what we do and how we do it to ensure that we develop our people and provide the highest level of customer service we can.

We’re looking for a detail-oriented Purchasing Assistant to join our team. This is a key support role in our purchasing and supply chain function—ideal for someone looking to grow their skills in a commercial setting. You’ll handle a mix of day-to-day purchasing tasks such as raising orders, receipting goods, liaising with suppliers, and supporting stock control. You’ll also play a key role in Product Information Management, ensuring specifications, pricing, and supplier data are kept accurate and up to date. While experience in purchasing, supply chain, or admin is a bonus, we’re open to candidates from varied backgrounds. Strong organisation, accuracy, and clear communication are what matter most.

What the role involves:

Raising and tracking purchase orders using Microsoft Dynamics 365
Liaising with suppliers regarding orders, pricing and delivery dates
Resolving delivery, pricing and invoice queries
Maintaining accurate product, supplier and pricing information
Receipting goods and updating purchasing records
Liaising with Team Leaders to help maintain suitable stock levels for production
Assisting the Group Purchasing Manager with developing the stock management system
Supporting stock management and replenishment planning
Helping with stock counts, stock transfers and investigating discrepancies
Researching products and alternative suppliers
Supporting continuous improvement projects

We’re looking for someone who:

Is a recent graduate or early-career candidate interested in purchasing, supply chain and stock management
Is organised, accurate and pays close attention to detail
Has good numerical and analytical skills
Communicates confidently with suppliers and colleagues
Can manage multiple tasks and prioritise their workload
Is comfortable using Excel, Outlook and other Microsoft Office applications
Has a proactive approach and enjoys improving processes
Is keen to learn about manufacturing and stock control
Ideally has experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 or a similar system, although training will be provided
May have a relevant degree or CIPS qualification, although neither is essential

Previous experience in purchasing, supply chain or administration would be helpful, but we welcome applications from candidates with varied backgrounds who can demonstrate the right skills and attitude.

What we offer in return:

A stable, full-time role with room to develop over time
A supportive working environment and experienced team to learn from
Opportunity to contribute to a growing and forward-thinking business
Future training and development opportunities, including support for qualifications
The opportunity to help develop our stock management systems and processes
Scope for the role to develop towards greater stock control responsibility

If this sounds like a good fit, we’d love to hear from you. Apply now and be part of a team that values Teamwork, Excellence, Respect & Innovation.

Salary and Benefits:

Competitive salary (depending on experience) + 26 Days Holidays + Bank Holidays + Pension + onsite parking as well as a cycle to work scheme + enhanced sick pay scheme+ clear pay and progression framework and many other small perks.
