Job Description

Share your talents 

In our Format & Design department, we shape the physical Rituals experience across the globe from new store openings to refits and improvements. As Stock Control Manager, you make sure our store furniture and fixtures are available when teams need them, with stock levels that are accurate, smart, and cost-conscious.

You sit at the heart of global store development operations, connecting internal stakeholders with external suppliers to keep projects moving. With reliable data, clear overviews, and thoughtful scenario planning, you help teams make better decisions—today and for the long term. You also take ownership of stock control standards and continuously look for ways to simplify, automate, and improve how we work. This role has a strategic impact: you help shape stock control policies and influence supply chain choices that support our global growth.

 

In this role, you will: 

  • Monitor and manage global stock levels of store furniture and fixtures, allocating stock to projects and ensuring timely delivery aligned with demand 
  • Maintain close contact with suppliers and act as the bridge between Technical Design, Store Design Operations, and Procurement for smooth planning and execution 
  • Maintain and update the furniture catalogue and ensure accurate stock records to support reporting and decision-making 
  • Provide insights and scenario planning based on stock levels, set allocation priorities, and recommend improvements to optimise global operations 
  • Define and implement global stock control policies and standards to create consistency and efficiency across regions 
  • Oversee stock-related budgets, ensuring cost efficiency and alignment with financial targets while identifying and mitigating risks (e.g., shortages, delays)

Qualifications

Bring all of you 

You bring a strong mix of analytical thinking, structure, and stakeholder sensitivity. You’re comfortable working across teams and time zones and know how to create clarity in a fast-moving environment. With your financial acumen and data-driven mindset, you turn stock data into practical advice and concrete actions. You communicate clearly, build trust with suppliers and colleagues, and stay calm when priorities shift. And because you care about doing things better every day, process improvement and automation come naturally to you.

 

To be successful in this role, you: 

  • Have a Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management, Business Administration, Logistics, or a related field 
  • Have 10+ years of experience in stock control, inventory management, or supply chain operations (preferably in a retail or store development environment) 
  • Are familiar with inventory management systems, reporting tools, and ERP platforms 
  • Have strong analytical, reporting, and scenario-planning skills, and can create clear management-level presentations and overviews 
  • Are proactive, pragmatic, solution-oriented, and able to work effectively with cross-functional teams (e.g., procurement, design, technical, project management)

 

At Rituals, we are committed to care for everyone and strive to create a diverse workplace where all employees belong and have equal opportunities to succeed. Read more about our commitment here https://careers.rituals.com/en-NL/work-with-heart-and-soul/diversity-and-inclusion/
