- Coordinate interstate stock transfers and resolve supply issues across the branch network.
- Use ERP reporting and Excel to analyse purchasing activity, identify trends and support better procurement decisions.

improve supplier performance and reduce unnecessary costs.
What You'll Bring:
- Experience in procurement, purchasing, supply chain or inventory management, ideally within a product-based business.

- Exposure to supplier negotiations, sourcing or cost optimisation would be highly regarded.
- Robust ERP and Excel skills, with the ability to interpret purchasing and inventory reports.
