As a result of its rapid expansion, its increasing propensity for manufacturing, and its growing number of brands and SKU’s. The value of the stock has increased significantly across the group and the board would like to introduce a robust and consistentprocess for appraising stock purchasing upfront and also requires an increased focus on how the group manages slow-moving and obsolete stock.

As **Global Head of Inventory, **you would therefore be responsible for the overall stock holding of the business, evaluating sales trends, seasonal peaks, and new lines, and working closely with Category Managers and Sales Team to ensure stock holdingof fast-moving lines is optimal while identifying and facilitating the reductions of overstocks, slow-moving lines, and obsolete products.

- Reviewing and taking ownership of bills of materials, ensuring that the price of finished goods is true to the raw materials and components cost.
- Ensuring that sell-out prices from the manufacturing facility to the DC are commercial and honest and that the margins reflect are accurate.

**Required Competencies**:
You will have proven experience in Stock Management including extensive Excel knowledge and you will be suitably analytical to take responsibility for overall stock levels, taking account of both historic seasonality and forecasted sales. You will be adaptableto work in a dynamic, fast-paced, agile environment.

Ideally, you will have experience in supply/demand planning for manufacturing (but this is an ideal, not required, competency) and ideally, you will be familiar with Sage 200, Dexterity, and Slimstock programs or similar.
