About the Role

Reporting directly to the Global Operations Manager, the Supply Chain Specialist will play a critical role in ensuring the efficient flow of materials from suppliers to production and ultimately to our customers. Your expertise in inventory management, purchasing, and logistics will help us maintain high standards of quality, cost-effectiveness, and operational excellence.

You will be joining a friendly, supportive team who are passionate about what we do. Our wider team is across the globe, so even though you will be based in our Christchurch offices, you will have opportunity to work with colleagues from our other offices.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Purchasing responsibility and main contact for suppliers; this includes placing purchase orders, forecasting, updating pricing and ETAs. All while maintaining a good working relationship
• Monitor and manage inventory levels to ensure sufficient supply of materials are available to support manufacturing and sales demand
• Liaising with suppliers and freight providers to ensure the timely and cost-efficient delivery of goods, along with resolving any issues that may arise.
• Work hand-in-hand with local Production and Global Sales teams to sync supply with demand, making sure everything runs like a well-oiled machine.
• Identifying areas for improvement and implementation of solutions to enhance efficiency and reduce costs.
• Prepare regular reports on supply chain performance, inventory levels, supplier performance, and cost analysis

About you

Your proactive style means you easily engage, support, and collaborate with people/teams to get the job done, and will feel empowered to work autonomously.

You will have at least 3 years in supply chain management including purchasing, inventory management and logistics. You're a communicator, a multitasker, and someone who thrives in busy environments. You have excellent analytical skills and love to make data-driven decisions.
