Job description

Whether it’s a juicy burger at halftime or a Bovril in the stands, you probably haven’t stopped to wonder what powers the lights that keep your favourite North West football teams playing after dark.

Behind the scenes, our client’s specialist power generators are quietly saving the day — keeping stadiums lit, events running, and critical operations moving. And right at the heart of making that happen? A smooth, responsive supply chain. That’s where you come in.

The Role
A leading organisation in the power services sector is seeking a proactive and highly organised Supply Chain Coordinator to join their operations team based in Garstang. This is a hands-on, fast-paced role, ideal for someone who thrives on juggling priorities, solving problems, and keeping everything moving behind the scenes.

You'll be responsible for supplier management, inventory oversight, and supporting key areas of operations such as scheduling and logistics — with the chance to learn the ins and outs of a critical industry from the ground up.

Key Responsibilities:

• Coordinate supply chain processes to ensure timely delivery of goods and materials
• Build and maintain strong supplier relationships, resolving any issues promptly
• Monitor stock levels across depots and engineer vehicles, placing accurate orders as needed
• Conduct routine and ad hoc stock checks to maintain inventory integrity
• Oversee goods in/out processes, including export documentation and courier bookings
• Support wider operations including job scheduling, quoting, and performance reporting

What You’ll Need to Succeed:

• Proven experience in supply chain, procurement, or stock control
• Strong relationship management and problem-solving skills
• Proficiency with Microsoft Excel (experience with Protean is a plus)
• A methodical, organised approach with great attention to detail
• Ability to work under pressure and prioritise effectively in a fast-moving environment
