Job Description

Hey! We’re Huel and we’re pleased to meet you! 👋 We're going to start by talking about our exciting new Materials Planning Executive position, but if you'd like the quick low down on us first including our growth story then just head to the bottom of this page!

The role

Our operations team play a huge role in the success of our customers' experience ensuring we deliver on our promise of never being out of stock 🍛. To help ensure we continue to deliver on our promise, we are looking for a new Materials Planning Executive to join our operations team.

Specific quantities of each raw ingredient are mixed together to create the final Huel product that ends up in our customers' hands. In this role, you'll be responsible for making sure that there is always availability of these raw ingredients so we can create the products we need.

You'll create accurate plans and place orders to maintain target stock supplies, making sure we're able to produce the right quantities of our products. You'll organise and assist with the purchasing of all types of products, for all product ranges and also trials. You'll be liaising with manufacturers as to what levels of stock they hold and subsequently placing orders for stock replenishment and ensuring shipment goes ahead 🚛

We’re working with food so the shelf life of materials is super important. You’ll need to make sure that all of the stock is fit for purpose and accurate in the system🍅.
