* Oversee accurate chilled stock ordering and management in line with sales trends and forecasting.
* Support onboarding of new product lines and ensure robust supply chains are in place.

In this role, you’ll have a genuine opportunity to shape procurement strategy, influence company performance, and work with autonomy as part of a forward-thinking leadership team.
