Stores Manager
The Opportunity

They are launching a brand-new, world-class facility in Basingstoke and need an experienced Stores Manager to lead their inventory and logistics operations.
Reporting to the Supply Chain Director, you will own the stores, goods-in, and despatch functions, ensuring seamless material flow to support busy electronics manufacturing schedules.
Key Responsibilities

- Production Support: Optimise the goods-in and kitting processes to ensure production lines have parts on time.
- International Despatch: Manage high-spec packaging (ESD/anti-static) and complete compliance documentation for UK and global shipping.
- Systems & CI: Manage stock via the ERP/MRP system, tracking KPIs and driving Lean/5S improvements.
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.
