About Our Client: Contek Recruitment Solutions is proud to represent our client who are a dynamic and growing leader in their sector. They are currently seeking a highly organized, detail-oriented UK Logistics & Inventory Co-ordinator to join their team. Based between their Edinburgh offices and Leith yard, this role is pivotal in bridging the gap between logistics, inventory management, and client satisfaction.

The Role:

Working closely with the warehouse team, you will take full ownership of the UK supply chain, freight coordination, and stock control. You will be the go-to person for internal design teams needing freight quotes, and the proactive voice keeping UK clients updated on their deliveries.

Key Responsibilities:

*

Freight & Logistics: Negotiate UK freight rates, book inbound and outbound national transport, and manage the pipeline of expected vs. actual shipping dates.

*

Client & Internal Communication: Provide weekly shipping updates to UK clients, issue vital paperwork (including Certificates of Conformity), and supply the design team with accurate freight rates for quoting.

*

Inventory Control: Lead monthly rolling stock takes in collaboration with the warehouse team and oversee UK rental equipment.

*

Travel: Occasional visits to UK client sites and suppliers as required.

What We Are Looking For:

*

Logistics Expertise: Proven, demonstrable experience in UK freight forwarding is essential. International freight forwarding experience is highly desirable.

*

Tech Savvy: Excellent proficiency with computers and software (Outlook, Excel) is a must. Prior experience implementing inventory software—specifically Point of Rental—is strongly preferred.

*

Sharp Eye for Detail: Exceptional accuracy when handling inventory data, shipping schedules, and compliance paperwork.

*

Communication & Teamwork: Strong interpersonal skills with a natural ability to build rapport with clients, suppliers, and internal teams.

*

Mobility: A full UK Driving License is required for travel between sites and suppliers.

How to Apply:

If you are a proactive logistics professional looking to take the next step with a forward-thinking company, we want to hear from you.
