- Pick, pack and record transfers
- Own stock accuracy: run regular cycle counts, maintain bin locations, reconcile the system against physical stock, and investigate and resolve discrepancies.
- Keep the stores clean, organised, labelled and secure; apply FIFO where it matters.
- Flag low stock and reorder triggers to the Inventory Planner and support the replenishment cycle.
- Maintain clean receiving records, stock movements and stock reports.
- Uphold stock security, housekeeping and safety standards in the stores.
Key Qualifications
- 3+ years in stores, warehouse or inventory control, ideally in manufacturing or retail distribution.
- Hands-on experience with an inventory / MRP / ERP system and able to learn a new system quickly.
- Strong numeracy and accuracy, with a disciplined, systematic approach to record-keeping.
