Job description

• I Innovation Embracing smarter systems, technology, and new ways of working
• S Service Supporting colleagues and customers through excellent stock control
• E Expertise Understanding our products, processes, and systems in depth

Why This Role Is Different

This is not a passive or purely administrative stock role. We are looking for a Stock Controller who can own and develop the stock control function, combining hands‑on accuracy with a clear view of how systems, processes and reporting should evolve as the business grows. This is a permanent role, offering stability and the opportunity to take real ownership of stock accuracy, visibility, and process improvement across the business.

Key Responsibilities

• Maintain accurate stock levels across all stores and warehouse locations
• Investigate and resolve stock discrepancies, shortages, and misallocations
• Carry out regular cycle counts and support quarterly stock takes
• Ensure all stock adjustments, transfers, and write‑offs are processed correctly
• Use Unleashed (or similar stock management software) daily for stock control and reporting
• Support forecasting and demand planning using system data
• Improve stock organisation to support accuracy, traceability and visibility across sites
• Help develop clearer stock movement processes between locations
• Support improvements in supplier ETA tracking and internal communication
• Work closely with Finance, Warehouse, Area Managers and Store Teams to ensure stock information is understood and acted upon

Experience

• Experience in stock control or inventory management
• Confident using stock systems (e.g. Unleashed) with strong Excel skills
• High attention to detail with excellent numeracy and accuracy
• Able to investigate issues methodically and suggest practical solutions
• Comfortable working independently and taking ownership of outcomes
