Retail Advisor / Stocktaker

Are you a Bar Manager / Pub Manager or Restaurant Manager or an Assistant Manager or Supervisor within the catering and hospitality industry looking for a better work / life balance?

Would you like to work sociable hours, Monday to Friday and have the evenings and weekends to yourself?

How about having Bank Holidays off and having 8 / 10 days off over the Christmas period?

Sounds good doesn’t it.

nGeneration is seeking either an experienced Stocktake Auditor / Stock-taker Advisor or a hospitality professional who’s worked at management / supervisory level and has experience in Wet and Dry Stocktakes within their Bar / Pub or Restaurant.

This is much more than a normal stocktaking role. You will develop long-term business relationships with your allocated clients, providing professional advice and support relating to running a hospitality business as well as carrying out your stocktaking responsibilities for the company.

SALARY: £26,000 - £28,000 per annum (depending on experience) + Competitive Mileage Allowance

If you’ve worked as a Stocktake Auditor or Stocktaker Advisor, then great. But if not, the company will consider candidates who have worked as either a Bar Manager / Pub Manager or Restaurant Manager or an Assistant Manager or Supervisor within the catering and hospitality industry. You will also receive additional training on the company’s systems and processes.

Working as a Stocktake Auditor / Stocktaker Advisor you will manage a number of leading restaurants, pubs, bars and retail entertainment venues where you will visit on a regular basis to carry out Wet and Dry Stocktakes.

As the Stocktake Auditor / Stocktaker Advisor you will also be required to analyse the results, running stocktake reports on their EPoS systems (additional training provided) and work with the individual businesses to help improve the utilisation of their stock, which in turn will improve their profitability.

Travel around your designated area is essential as part of this role, and you must have access to your own vehicle.

UAV (Drones) Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK unmanned aviation (UAV/UAS/RPAS) hiring has shifted from aircraft‑type buzzwords to capability‑driven evaluation across flight ops, autonomy, data products, safety & regulatory compliance. Employers want proof you can plan, fly, analyse and scale UAV systems safely and economically—VLOS/A2 CofC, GVC, BVLOS & SORA ops, UTM integrations, command‑and‑control resilience, sense‑and‑avoid, payload pipelines, and fleet reliability. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for UAV pilots/ops managers, flight test engineers, autonomy/perception, GNC/control, UTM/backend, safety & airworthiness, data processing/analysis, and field engineering roles. Who this is for: UAV pilots & flight ops, mission planners, flight test & safety engineers, autonomy/SLAM/perception, GNC/control engineers, embedded/avionics, communications & C2 links, UTM/airspace integrations, data processing (imagery/LiDAR/thermal), GIS/photogrammetry, maintenance & field techs, and programme/product managers in the UK.

Why UAV (Drone) Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones, have seen rapid adoption across sectors in the UK — agriculture, logistics, inspection, mapping, delivery, search & rescue, environmental monitoring, media, defence, and more. As UAV use proliferates, the roles supporting them are shifting. Modern UAV careers are no longer just about aerodynamics, electronics or autopilot algorithms. They now require knowledge of law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design — because flying machines in public airspace must be safe, trusted, legal, intuitive and well communicated. In this article, we’ll explore why UAV careers in the UK are becoming more multidisciplinary, how those allied fields intersect with UAV work, and what job-seekers & employers should do to adapt.

UAV Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern UAV Department

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), commonly called drones, are transforming industries across the UK—from agriculture, surveillance, mapping, and inspection to logistics, environmental monitoring, and emergency response. UAV systems combine hardware, embedded systems, controls, autonomy, sensors, communications, regulatory / airworthiness, and operations. As the UAV ecosystem grows, companies need team structures that ensure safety, reliability, regulatory compliance, and operational readiness. If you are applying for UAV roles via UAVJobs.co.uk or building a UAV team, this article will help you understand the roles typical in a modern UAV department, how they collaborate throughout the UAV lifecycle, what skills and qualifications employers expect in the UK, what salaries look like, common challenges, and best practices for structuring teams that deliver capable UAV systems.
