· Lead the stock control function to ensure accurate inventory visibility, reconciliation, reporting, and audit compliance across regional warehouses, third-party storage locations, and transport assets.

· Work closely with S&OP, Manufacturing Plants, Commercial Teams, and Supply Chain stakeholders to support sourcing decisions, production planning, load scheduling, and regional/global material availability.

· Develop and maintain logistics KPIs and reporting mechanisms focused on safety, cost, service, utilisation, and operational efficiency. Identify opportunities to improve processes, reduce costs, and enhance customer satisfaction.

· Support budgeting, forecasting, transport accruals, freight cost analysis, and logistics spend management to ensure accurate financial reporting and cost optimisation across the function.

· Support strategic business projects, new product introductions, and supply chain initiatives by ensuring logistics requirements, risks, compliance considerations, and operational capabilities are fully assessed and implemented successfully.

· Lead, coach, and develop the Logistics and Stock Control teams, fostering a high-performance culture focused on accountability, collaboration, continuous improvement, and customer excellence.

Qualifications

· Degree, Higher National Diploma (HND), or equivalent qualification in Logistics, Supply Chain Management, Business, Engineering, or a related discipline is preferred.

· DGSA Qualification would be desirable.

Knowledge/ Experience Required

· 5+ years of experience in logistics, transport management, supply chain, or service delivery leadership roles within an international and operationally complex environment.

· Demonstrated experience managing the transportation of dangerous goods, specifically Class 2.1 and Class 2.2 pressurised gases in both bulk and packaged formats.

· Strong understanding of international freight operations including road, sea, and air transportation, freight forwarding, customs compliance, and Incoterms.

· Working knowledge of ADR, IMDG, IATA, CDG, and dangerous goods compliance requirements is essential.

· Proven ability to manage third-party logistics providers, freight forwarders, supplier contracts, and service level agreements.

· Prior experience leading and developing teams within logistics, supply chain, or operational environments.

· Strong analytical, organisational, and problem-solving skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.

· Advanced Microsoft Office skills, particularly Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Word. Experience using ERP systems such as SAP is advantageous.
