• Monitoring inventory levels and supporting replenishment activities for operationally critical materials.
• Liaising with internal stakeholders to communicate material risks, shortages or delivery concerns.
• Supporting continuous improvement initiatives aimed at enhancing material flow, inventory accuracy and operational performance.
• Managing company tooling and equipment records, ensuring servicing, maintenance and certification requirements remain compliant.
• Supporting warehouse operations by maintaining a safe, organised and efficient working environment.
• Assisting with the movement of materials and occasional operational support activities as required.

• Strong stock control and inventory management experience.
• Ability to work across multiple priorities within a project-led environment.
• Good understanding of material traceability, stock accuracy and inventory systems.
