About Us

At Purple Granite Ltd, we're proud to be one of the UK's leading manufacturers and installers of high-quality stone worktops. Every day, we help our customers transform their spaces with stunning craftsmanship -- and none of it would be possible without the right materials, ordered and delivered on time.

Ordering all consumables, tools, and materials needed for fabrication and installation. Managing the purchasing and delivery of stone from a variety of suppliers. Tracking and maintaining stock levels, ensuring the workshop and fitting teams always have what they need. Adjusting orders and priorities as schedules change -- staying flexible and calm under pressure. Keeping purchase logs, delivery records, and supplier notes up to date and accurate. Negotiating prices, securing discounts, and seeking new suppliers to keep costs competitive. Building and maintaining strong working relationships with suppliers and delivery partners. Working closely with the Operations and Administration team to ensure smooth daily workflow. Supporting other operational or administrative duties once trained and established in the role.
