  • Setting up and maintaining product information within the ERP system
  • Closing works orders and tracking production through the manufacturing process
  • Analysing production data and highlighting opportunities for improvement
  • Producing daily and weekly KPI reports
  • Maintaining Excel-based reporting tools and operational data
  • Managing WIP stock and supporting quarterly stock counts
  • Working closely with operational teams to improve data accuracy
  • Supporting continuous improvement projects across the factory

What they're looking for

  • Strong Excel skills and confidence working with large amounts of data
  • Experience using ERP systems such as SAP, Tropos or similar
  • Excellent attention to detail
  • A proactive approach to problem-solving
  • Someone who enjoys working with both systems and people
