Are you an organised and detail-driven professional with experience in manufacturing environments? We’re on the lookout for an Inventory Controller to take ownership of stock accuracy and inventory processes for a well-established engineering business based in Cambridge. This is a brilliant opportunity to step into a pivotal role where you'll help shape stock control practices, support process improvement initiatives, and collaborate across departments to ensure operational efficiency. What You’ll Be Doing: As Inventory Controller, you’ll be the go-to person for everything stock related—ensuring that inventory records are accurate, identifying and resolving discrepancies, and maintaining smooth flow across the supply chain. Your responsibilities will include: * Conducting routine cycle counts and investigating stock variances * Carrying out root cause analysis and implementing corrective actions * Supporting continuous improvement and LEAN initiatives to streamline inventory storage and movement * Producing regular reports on stock accuracy and write-off performance * Delivering training across production and shop floor teams to promote consistent stock handling * Managing scrap allowance processes and ensuring proper documentation * Working within Microsoft Dynamics to record stock transactions and adjustments * Collaborating with Purchasing, Logistics, and Planning teams to improve visual stock management * Engaging with suppliers to drive efficiency through smaller, more frequent deliveries * Promoting a culture of waste reduction within the business unit What We’re Looking For: We’re after someone with hands-on experience in inventory control within a manufacturing setting, and ideally someone who’s had exposure to ERP systems (Microsoft Dynamics would be a bonus). You’ll need: * A track record of improving stock accuracy and driving process improvements * Practical knowledge of inventory systems and best practices * Strong communication skills and the ability to work well across departments * Attention to detail and a proactive, can-do attitude * The confidence to lead training sessions and champion high standards * Ideally, a qualification in engineering or a related discipline (not essential if you’ve got relevant experience) Why Join? You’ll be joining a collaborative, forward-thinking team that values accuracy, innovation, and continuous improvement. There are clear opportunities for progression, including potential steps into Senior Inventory Controller or Team Leadership roles in the future
