• Carry out regular cycle counts of inventory and medicines, maintaining accurate stock records and ensuring agreed stock levels are consistently achieved.
• Liaise with suppliers to coordinate product recalls, arrange returns of incorrect or faulty deliveries, and ensure all returns are processed efficiently.
• Support routine stock control activities, including monthly high-cost consumable counts, quarterly consignment stock counts and the annual stock take.

What we’re looking for

• Previous experience in stock control, inventory management or supply chain operations, ideally within a regulated environment.
• Excellent organisational skills with the ability to prioritise a varied workload and work independently.
• Strong attention to detail, numerical accuracy and analytical skills.
• Confident using stock management systems together with Microsoft Excel and the wider Microsoft Office suite.
