Part of a wider international health group, the business is committed to helping people develop healthier habits for life. Its Logistics and Operations team plays a vital role in ensuring products are available when and where customers need them, making this an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys a fast-paced environment, problem-solving and working across different areas of the supply chain.
Job Role

Working closely with internal departments, suppliers, third-party logistics providers and freight forwarding partners, you will help ensure stock moves efficiently, deliveries arrive on time and accurate information is available to support operational decisions.
This is a primarily home-based role, offering the flexibility of remote working alongside occasional travel to company locations and meetings. The business is recruiting for two opportunities: one permanent position and one 12-month fixed-term contract.
Responsibilities
* Manage day-to-day logistics administration, ensuring records, systems and documentation are maintained accurately.
* Raise and monitor purchase and transfer orders for products and packaging materials.

* Prepare shipping documentation, including invoices, purchase orders and bills of lading.
* Maintain accurate stock information, prepare logistics reports and update operational data.
* Work closely with Procurement, Customer Service, Finance and other internal teams to resolve supply chain issues.
* Identify opportunities to improve logistics processes, delivery performance and customer service.
Personal Profile

* Previous administrative experience, with strong organisational skills and excellent attention to detail.
* Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office, particularly Excel.

* An understanding of stock control, order processing, replenishment planning or distribution processes.
* Confident communication skills, with the ability to build effective relationships with internal teams and external partners.
* A proactive, solutions-focused approach with the ability to manage competing priorities and meet deadlines.
