Goods In Operative

If you know your way around Goods In, can confidently book materials onto an ERP system and understand the importance of getting stock and traceability right first time, this role should be of interest.

We’re looking for someone who can take ownership of incoming materials within a busy engineering and manufacturing environment. You’ll be checking deliveries, matching parts against purchase orders, booking stock onto the system and making sure everything is correctly identified and ready to support production.

This isn’t simply an unloading and put-away role. You’ll be an important part of the manufacturing process, spotting discrepancies early and making sure the right materials are in the right place at the right time.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll manage incoming deliveries from suppliers and subcontractors, checking materials against purchase orders, delivery notes and supporting documentation.

Day to day, this will include:

• Receiving and checking incoming materials and components
• Booking goods into SAP or a similar ERP system
• Checking quantities, packaging, condition and documentation
• Labelling and allocating materials to the correct locations
• Maintaining accurate stock records and material traceability
• Identifying and quarantining damaged or non-conforming materials
• Raising discrepancies where deliveries don’t match the order
• Loading, unloading and moving materials safely around the site
• Supporting stock counts and inventory checks
• Helping maintain an organised, efficient Goods In and stores area

What we’re looking for

You’ll ideally come from a Goods In, Stores, Warehouse or Material Control position within manufacturing or engineering.

You should be comfortable using an ERP or warehouse management system and have experience booking materials into stock. Accuracy is important, particularly when working with part numbers, quantities, purchase orders and traceability requirements.

Experience with SAP would be useful, although experience with another ERP system is fine.

A Counterbalance or Reach forklift licence would also be useful, but isn’t essential.

You’ll suit this role if you’re organised, reliable and comfortable taking ownership of your area. You’ll need to work accurately while keeping materials moving and making sure manufacturing has what it needs.

If you’ve worked within an engineering or manufacturing business, we want to hear from you.
