Job Description

Are you an analytical and commercially minded supply chain professional looking for your next opportunity? We are seeking a Materials & Logistics Analyst to join a well-established organisation in a fast-paced operational environment.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone with experience in inventory management, logistics, procurement or supply chain planning to take ownership of inventory performance, supplier relationships and operational planning.

About the Role

Reporting to the Materials & Logistics Manager, you will play a key role in ensuring the availability of critical materials, parts and equipment to support day-to-day operations.

You will be responsible for balancing inventory availability, cost and operational requirements while working closely with internal stakeholders and external suppliers.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Monitoring inventory levels and ensuring stock availability to meet operational requirements.
• Developing demand forecasts and inventory plans to support maintenance and operational schedules.
• Analysing inventory data to identify trends, risks and opportunities for improvement.
• Coordinating purchasing activities, obtaining quotes and managing supplier orders.
• Building and maintaining strong relationships with suppliers to ensure timely delivery of materials.
• Monitoring supplier performance, pricing and service level agreements.
• Identifying opportunities to improve inventory accuracy, stock control and supply chain processes.
• Preparing reports and maintaining accurate inventory and procurement data.
• Working collaboratively with internal teams to ensure operational requirements are met.
• Supporting cost optimisation initiatives and continuous improvement across the supply chain.

About You

We are looking for someone who is proactive, analytical and enjoys working in a collaborative, operational environment.

You will ideally bring:

• Previous experience in logistics, inventory management, supply chain, procurement or materials planning.
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret data and make informed decisions.
• Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills.
• The ability to manage competing priorities and work independently.
• A commercial mindset with an understanding of cost, efficiency and operational performance.
• Intermediate to advanced Microsoft Excel skills and confidence working with systems and data.
• A process-driven approach with a genuine interest in continuous improvement.

Experience within the aviation industry or a maintenance-related environment will be highly regarded, but is not essential. We are equally interested in candidates from other industries who have transferable skills in logistics, inventory or supply chain management.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a well-established organisation where you can make a genuine impact on operational performance, inventory management and supply chain efficiency.

We look forward to hearing from you!
