Responsibilities include:

• Coordinating inbound deliveries from suppliers to warehouses.
• Ensuring all shipments are booked, tracked and delivered on time.
• Managing communication between suppliers, freight partners, warehouses and internal teams.
• Identifying and resolving delays, delivery issues or documentation gaps.
• Ensuring inbound delivery schedules are aligned with stock requirements and commercial priorities.
• Maintaining visibility of goods in transit and expected warehouse receipt dates.

2. International Shipment Management

Oversee international logistics, particularly shipments from China to the UK.

Responsibilities include:

• Managing international freight movements by sea, air or courier as required.
• Coordinating with freight forwarders, suppliers and customs agents.
• Monitoring shipment timelines, port activity, customs clearance and final delivery.
• Supporting landed cost visibility and helping improve freight planning.
• Ensuring the business has clear visibility of international inbound stock.

3. Warehouse Management and 3PL Performance

Manage day-to-day operational relationships with warehouse and fulfilment partners.

Responsibilities include:

• Ensuring warehouse SLAs are clearly defined, tracked and met.
• Managing stock accuracy and discrepancy resolution.
• Reviewing fulfilment performance, cost, service levels and operational issues.
• Ensuring warehouse processes are scalable and suitable for future business growth.

4. Retail Order Management

Manage the operational execution of retail, wholesale and B2B orders.

Responsibilities include:

• Coordinating retail order fulfilment from order receipt through to dispatch and delivery.
• Ensuring retailer-specific requirements are met, including delivery windows, labelling, packaging, documentation and routing requirements.
• Managing communication with internal sales, customer service, warehouse and logistics teams.
• Tracking retail order status and proactively escalating risks.
• Supporting OTIF performance – on time, in full delivery.
• Helping create a more structured and professional retail order management process.

5. Data Visibility and Operational Reporting

Improve visibility across the downstream supply chain so the business has accurate, timely and useful operational data.

Responsibilities include:

• Building and maintaining clear trackers for inbound shipments, warehouse stock, retail orders and logistics performance.
• Improving data accuracy across systems, spreadsheets and operational reports.
• Creating regular reporting for the Head of Operations and wider business.
• Tracking key metrics such as inbound delivery status, warehouse performance, stock accuracy, fulfilment performance, freight costs and retail order status.

6. Process Improvement and Operational Efficiency

Responsibilities include:

• Reviewing existing operational processes and identifying inefficiencies.
• Creating clear SOPs, process maps and working documents.
• Introducing better controls around inbound logistics, warehouse management, retail fulfilment and stock movement.
• Reducing manual work, duplicated effort and avoidable operational issues.
• Helping professionalise the operations function as the business scales.

• Experience in supply chain, logistics, warehousing, fulfilment or operations management.
• Strong understanding of inbound logistics, warehouse operations and order fulfilment.
• Experience managing freight forwarders, 3PLs, warehouses or logistics partners.
• Knowledge of international shipping, ideally including China-to-UK import processes.
