I'm recruiting on behalf of a long-standing, family-run import and distribution business based in Banbury, serving the equestrian and agricultural wholesale market for over 20 years.

This is a small but dynamic business with a strong product portfolio - including wheelbarrows, matting, and bulk plastics - and a loyal trade customer base across the UK. Following investment in ERP systems and reporting tools, the company is now looking to strengthen its operational capabilities with the addition of a Supply Chain Coordinator.

As Supply Chain Coordinator, you'll take ownership of the day-to-day supply chain and purchasing functions. From managing overseas suppliers to coordinating shipments and ensuring stock accuracy, you'll play a critical role in making sure the right products are in the right place - on time and in full.

This is a hands-on, varied position within a close-knit team, ideal for someone with strong planning and coordination experience who enjoys working across the full supply chain cycle.

Key Responsibilities
  • Coordinate all inbound shipments from international and UK-based suppliers
  • Raise purchase orders and maintain accurate lead time and cost data in the ERP system (Unleashed)
  • Monitor and manage stock levels, reorder points, and forecasts to ensure availability
  • Work closely with warehouse and sales teams to maintain effective flow of information
  • Liaise with freight partners to ensure timely and cost-effective deliveries
  • Support continuous improvement of OTIF (on-time in-full) performance
  • Identify issues or delays early and implement effective solutions
  • Use data and reporting tools (e.g. Phocas) to support supply chain decisions and improvements

Ideal Candidate Profile
  • Proven experience in a supply chain, purchasing, or logistics coordination role
  • Experience working in import/distribution, ideally in an SME environment
  • Strong understanding of end-to-end supply chain processes and international logistics
  • Excellent organisational and communication skills
  • Strong attention to detail and proactive problem-solving mindset
  • Confident using ERP systems (Unleashed a bonus) and reporting tools
  • Skilled in Excel and comfortable working with stock and performance data

What's On Offer
  • £35,000-£45,000 depending on experience
  • Monday to Friday, 7:30am-5:00pm
  • Free lunch provided daily
  • Free on-site parking
  • 21 days holiday 8 bank holidays
  • A close-knit, supportive team and open company culture
  • The chance to make a meaningful impact in a business investing in growth and efficiency
