Job description

We are looking for a Stock Controller to join our team at Huws Gray Birmingham South Partnering (B30).

If you’re in the trade or have ever tackled a home improvement project, you’ve probably heard of us. We’re the Huws Gray Group and we’re made up of a number of brands, including Huws Gray, Huws Gray Plant & Tool Hire, Civils & Lintels, The Timber Group, PDM, NDI and Anglia Tool Centre to name a few. Up and down the UK, our branches are serving and supporting our local communities with all their building material needs, but we couldn’t do this without the right people, so why not join us?

Our Partnering Stores exclusively serve one customer, and we have a mix of stock in all of our partnering sites to support them with projects in their areas. Our stores ensure they get what they need, on time, every time.

We’re looking for an organised Stock Controller to help keep things running smoothly. You’ll be the go-to person for keeping track of stock, making sure deliveries are on point, and helping everything move efficiently across the site.

• Helping plan what needs reordering and chatting with suppliers to get it sorted.
• Keeping the stock area tidy, safe, and well-organised.
• Supporting safe working practices when handling stock.
• Supporting the wider team in day-to-day tasks

We are looking for someone who’s confident with stock control and inventory systems and ideally someone with experience in a similar environment. You’ll need a good head for numbers, solid attention to detail and be comfortable using inventory software and Microsoft Office. If you’re someone who can stay organised, solve problems and work well both solo and with a team, you’ll fit right in.
