Your Day-to-Day Missions (aka KPAs):

Oversee all warehouse operations: receiving, space allocation, stock storage, and distribution. Plan and execute daily and weekly distribution loads in line with demand planning and customer schedules. Ensure strict compliance with FIFO disciplines, export regulations, and country-specific load requirements. Conduct stock counts, cycle counts, and address discrepancies through root cause analysis and corrective actions. Implement strong stock control procedures to reduce waste, overages, and stock aging issues. Enforce and monitor adherence to Food Safety (FSSC 22000) and Occupational Health & Safety standards. Maintain a clean, safe, pest-free warehouse with high standards of hygiene and order. Lead and manage a team of supervisors and operators, including training, mentoring, and performance management. Conduct ERP stock movement tracking, ensuring full traceability and system accuracy. Compile and present daily/weekly/monthly warehouse KPIs and operational performance reports. Investigate late deliveries, over/underloads, and collaborate with relevant departments to resolve. Act as the point of escalation for quality or stock issues, engaging with procurement, quality, and production teams. Identify and implement process improvement initiatives to drive warehouse efficiency and reduce operational risk. Ensure effective use of storage space, especially in high-traffic and seasonal peak periods. Support audits, ensure warehouse documentation is up to date, and provide traceable records of stock movement. Participate in staff selection, onboarding, and compliance training programs.
