Role Overview

This role is responsible for managing an electrical lighting supplier portfolio, ensuring effective forecasting, stock availability, inventory control, and supplier performance within a collaborative purchasing team.

We are seeking an experienced and commercially aware Buyer to manage a defined portfolio of suppliers within our electrical lighting product range.

This is a key role responsible for optimizing stockholding, maintaining high service levels, and ensuring working capital is effectively managed. The successful candidate will take ownership of forecasting, ordering, and supplier coordination to ensure stock availability targets are achieved while minimizing excess and slow-moving inventory.

You will join a close-knit Purchasing team of four, where collaboration, accountability, and a positive attitude are essential. We are looking for someone who can quickly get up to speed, take ownership of their portfolio, and contribute positively to team performance from day one.

Key Responsibilities

  • Forecast demand and place purchase orders to maintain agreed service levels while controlling stock investment.
  • Manage open purchase orders and supplier schedules to ensure timely delivery and continuity of supply.
  • Monitor and minimize excess, slow-moving, and obsolete stock.
  • Track supplier performance, including lead times, delivery reliability, and responsiveness, and take corrective action where required.
  • Monitor inventory levels across Dublin and UK hub warehouses to optimize stock coverage and allocation.
  • Collaborate with Sales teams regarding large project orders, providing accurate availability dates and supply solutions.
  • Work closely with the Purchasing team in our China office on a daily basis to align ordering plans and resolve supply issues.
  • Implement daily stock control measures to prevent out-of-stock situations.
  • Prepare reports and provide analysis to support the Purchasing Manager in decision-making and performance monitoring.

The Ideal Candidate

This role is suited to an experienced Buyer or Inventory Planner who is comfortable managing a supplier portfolio independently and thrives in a fast-paced, commercially driven environment.

Essential Experience & Skills

  • Proven experience of 3-5 years in buying, stockholding, or inventory management.
  • Strong analytical and numeracy skills with the ability to interpret data and make informed decisions.
  • Commercial awareness and understanding of the financial impact of stock decisions.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel.
  • Experience working with ERP systems (SAP Business One experience desirable).
  • Excellent organizational skills with strong attention to detail.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities with a strong sense of urgency.

Personal Attributes

  • Positive, enthusiastic, and solution-driven mindset.
  • Strong communicator, confident in dealing with suppliers and internal stakeholders.
  • Self-motivated with the ability to take ownership and work independently.
  • Assertive when managing supplier performance and resolving issues.
  • Team-oriented and able to contribute positively within a small team environment.
  • Results-focused with a strong “can-do” attitude.

Desirable Experience

  • Experience dealing with Asian suppliers.
  • Knowledge of freight and logistics processes.
  • Negotiation experience.
  • Work experience in Ireland or internationally.
  • Proficiency in SAP Business One.

What We’re Looking For

We want someone who brings energy, professionalism, and accountability to the role. The right candidate will be proactive rather than reactive, comfortable working with data, and motivated to improve processes and performance.

Above all, we are looking for a positive team player who can integrate quickly, support colleagues, and contribute to a high-performing purchasing function.

Pay: €40,000.00-€42,000.00 per year
