About The Role

We’re looking for a Supply Chain and Administration Planner to join our team at the Royal British Legion, helping keep things running smoothly in our warehouse. In this role, you’ll be managing stock levels, processing purchase orders, and making sure goods are moving in and out of the warehouse efficiently. You’ll also work closely with the Warehouse Supervisor to support daily tasks and help plan in-house stock production.

Come and be part of the leading Armed Forces charity, making a difference to the lives of those who have served to keep us safe and protect our way of life.

You’ll also be the go-to person for our Delta Warehouse Management System, helping users with any issues and making sure everyone has the right access. If there’s a problem, you’ll work with our IT team or external suppliers to get it sorted. Accuracy is key, especially when it comes to keeping stock records and making sure deliveries are logged properly.

There’s also a creative side to the role, as you’ll be editing images for commemorative displays and keeping everything up to Royal British Legion standards. If you’ve got experience in supply chain management, great IT skills, and want to make a difference, we’d love to hear from you!

Here at RBL, we aim to support our people and their wellbeing, with a package including generous paid holiday allowance and pension scheme contributions, and a range of optional benefits and discounts.

We want our commitment to equality, diversity, and inclusion for all to be reflected in the composition of staff. We are particularly keen to receive applications from candidates from communities currently underrepresented in the diocese.
