  • Address inventory discrepancies, process issues, and non-compliance
  • Resolve issues within scope; escalate with clear facts and actions

  • Strong team leadership and labour planning capability
  • Experience with ERP inventory transactions
  • Ability to manage priorities in a fast-paced environment
  • Working knowledge of safety and warehouse operations
  • Clear communication and problem-solving skills
  • Forklift experience required
