  • Support the procurement team in evaluating the working capital implications of both current and future commercial negotiations.
  • Ensure that supplier rebates and other financial elements (e.g., marketing funds) are accurately represented in the Profit & Loss statement, and that the rebate debtor is regularly reviewed to maximize the group's working capital position.
  • Oversee accrual accuracy and ensure prompt collection of contract support, taking action to challenge the commercial team for resolutions whenever issues arise.
  • Maximize price deferral income by ensuring that no due payments remain unclaimed.
  • Ensure the accuracy of the rebate element of stock (RES) calculation to prevent misstatements.
  • Consult with category directors to ensure that all supplier terms are comprehensively understood and accurately recorded in relevant systems.
  • Contribute to the group's working capital optimization by assisting Operations in maintaining the optimal level of stock across branches.
  • Provide insightful inventory reporting to all business areas, particularly regarding gross stock and the rebate element of stock.
  • Develop and implement suitable accounting policies concerning stock aging while executing strategies to minimize aged stock.
