At LifeScan we believe our talented and passionate team is what makes us special. We inspire excellence and teamwork through our Shared Values of Care, Create, Connect and Compete.

We have a great opportunity for an Inventory Specialist to join our team. This role can be undertaken on a hybrid working pattern, working from our site in Inverness. We'll also consider applications from candidates based in Belgium, who are looking to work on a remote basis, with a flexibility to meet face to face when required.

What YOU will do here at LifeScan:

As part of the global logistics operations team, the Inventory team ensures that:

  • Inventory in all our warehouses is well controlled and managed through quality-defined processes
  • Our goods arrive at the right place and the right time within our global regions daily

To ensure this complex job runs smoothly, we work closely together with our contracted distribution centre (Third Party Logistics provider/3PL) and many internal stakeholders globally.

Relationship management with the 3PL and data driven insights are an essential part in this complex environment.

We also manage the requested repack and rework assignments which are deemed to follow strictly defined processes, and are executed by our external repack service provider located in Belgium.

We are a dynamic team with a balance of skills which include: understanding and translating our customer expectations into action, delivering improvement plans in close cooperation with our 3PL, and reporting on these action plans with our internal stakeholders.

Responsibilities will include:

  • Contributing in the end to end coordination of the rework and repack activities, which are deemed to follow strictly defined processes, by working closely together with our internal Lifescan stakeholders and the external rework supplier, to ensure that requests are executed on-time, and compliant to the latest standards
  • Contributing to the Slow Moving and Obsolete (SLOB) analysis in close cooperation with Finance and Supply Plan, and being responsible for the coordination of the destruction of the SLOB inventory
  • Being part of our inventory ‘ears and eyes” team, and play a key role in providing insights into inventory statuses to our internal stakeholders (customer service/commercial/plan/quality/regulatory teams) through proactive information sharing
  • Bringing a strong service mindset, and the ability to look end-to-end across the Value Chain and always think from the customer's experience
  • Monitoring, investigating, and resolving the inventory discrepancies between the order management system (JDe) and the warehouse management system (CIEL) on a daily basis and on a global level
  • Performing in/outbound and inventory move error handling activities on a daily basis and on a global level
  • Supporting inter-branch replenishment flows

About YOU:

Ideally, you'll be degree qualified, with a good level of experience in inventory management, coupled with a strong understanding of E2E Supply Chain processes and tools.

However, at the heart of this role we're looking for individuals who have customer focus and problem solving in their professional DNA, and a “hands-on” mentality, so if you feel this role ticks these boxes for you please apply!

As well as:

  • An ability to balance a busy, ever-changing workload, prioritizing tasks and taking independent decisions to ensure the work is carried out effectively and efficiently
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills; you'll thrive on being a positive role model and team player
  • An ability to build and maintain strong, effective working relationships and partnerships across the organisation and with our 3PL supplier
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
  • Strong IT skills, particularly in the use of the MS Office product suite
  • Good knowledge of ERP systems and analytics tools (Oracle, JDe) is a plus. Training support can be provided, so an eagerness to learn would be great.

We pride ourselves in creating a fantastic team environment that allows everyone to grow and develop. Therefore, it's important to us that you have:

  • High Emotional Intelligence with an ability to work with multi-cultural teams
  • Able to recognise and welcome diversity
  • Flexibility and a solution-oriented approach
  • A spirit of continuous improvement

What you will gain from the role:

This role will give you an opportunity to work in an international environment, and it goes without saying that we offer fantastic compensation and benefits teamed with personal and professional development.

If you want to be seen for the talent you bring to your work, be the driver of your own career, and work with others who share your passion for success then this would be the right role for you.
