Escape Recruitment is delighted to be partnering with an established and growing business that has built an excellent reputation for supporting customers across Scotland. Due to continued growth and investment, they are creating a brand-new Stock Controller / Systems Specialist position.

This is far more than a traditional stock control role. You will have the opportunity to learn the business from the ground up before playing a key role in the implementation of a brand-new ERP system. Once the system is live, you will take ownership of stock management, helping to improve processes, drive efficiencies and ensure customers continue to receive an outstanding service.

If you enjoy working with data, improving systems and making a real impact, this is an excellent opportunity to join a business with a genuinely supportive culture where your ideas will be valued.

The Role

  • Manage stock levels to ensure excellent product availability.
  • Analyse sales trends and place supplier orders.
  • Monitor supplier lead times and expedite deliveries where required.
  • Build strong relationships with suppliers and internal teams.
  • Keep product information and price lists up to date.
  • Process stock receipts, supplier returns and credits.
  • Communicate stock availability and delivery updates to customers and colleagues.
  • Support the implementation of a new Sales & Operating system, including data migration, testing and user training.
  • Identify opportunities to improve stock processes and business efficiency.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
