Your role

As part of the Logistics Finance team you will play a key role in the support of Next's world class warehousing and logistics operations. This is an operation that supports a worldwide online customer base, over 500 retail stores and a growing third party Total Platform client base.

This growing client list now includes the likes of Reiss, Victoria’s Secret and Gap. It is supporting this third party Total Platform operation in which we need your help.

Once established in this role we will offer office and home hybrid working. Ideally we are looking for someone who is great at Excel, with excellent communication skills and the passion and enthusiasm to develop within Next!
