Retail Advisor / Stocktaker

Role overview

nGeneration is looking for a hospitality professional who can combine stocktaking expertise with client-facing advisory work. This position is suited to someone from a managerial or supervisory background in bars, pubs, restaurants, or similar hospitality settings, especially if you want a role with better work-life balance, regular weekday hours, and time off on evenings, weekends, and bank holidays.

The job involves visiting a portfolio of hospitality and retail entertainment venues across Doncaster and nearby areas to complete wet and dry stocktakes, review results, and support clients with practical advice that helps them run their businesses more efficiently and improve stock usage and profitability.

Compensation and working pattern

The salary for this full-time position is £26,500 to £28,500 per year, depending on experience, along with a competitive mileage allowance. The role is Monday to Friday, with bank holidays off and around 8 to 10 days off over the Christmas period. Because travel is central to the job, you must have your own vehicle.

Training and support

Applicants with direct stocktaking experience are welcome, but the employer will also consider people with relevant hospitality management or supervisory experience who have performed wet and dry stocktakes. Additional training will be provided on the company’s systems and working methods, including EPoS reporting tools.

Key duties

You will manage regular visits to client venues, carry out stocktakes, analyse results, produce reports, and work closely with businesses to help them improve stock control and overall performance. The role is more advisory than a standard stocktaking position, with a focus on building long-term professional relationships.

Requirements

To be successful, you should have experience in hospitality management or a similar supervisory role, a working knowledge of wet and dry stocktaking, and confidence using EPoS systems to run stocktake reports and update items. Strong organisation, time management, administration, communication, customer service, and PC skills are also needed, together with a sound understanding of stock yields and stock depletion.

Additional information

This role requires travel across Doncaster and surrounding areas. The company also offers training, team events, and team parties as part of its employee benefits approach.

Benefits

Alongside the salary and mileage allowance, the employer provides a company van and fuel card, plus training opportunities, company events, team parties, and team-building activities.
