Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I am a supply chain apprentice which means i am involved in liaising with internal and external stakeholders such as suppliers, couriers, production, goods-in, amongst many others. I am in charge or placing orders for materials needed for production and run reports which track the progress of these orders within aspects such as on-time delivery and monitoring delayed orders. I also present this data to many different colleagues.
