Conduct scheduled perpetual stock takes.
Investigate stock discrepancies, determine root causes, and implement corrective actions.
Maintain accurate records of stock movements, adjustments, and write-offs.
Ensure physical stock matches records in the Warehouse Management System (WMS).
Monitor stock levels and report risks such as stockouts or overstocking.
Collaboration & Coordination
Work closely with Warehouse and Purchasing teams to ensure correct stock handling and timely replenishment.
Support Goods-In processes by verifying delivery quantities and quality against purchase orders.
Loss Prevention & Compliance
Identify and report damaged, expired, or obsolete stock.
Ensure compliance with company policies, health & safety regulations, and HACCP (if applicable).
Support the development and implementation of loss-reduction initiatives.
Reporting & Analysis
Provide regular reports on stock accuracy and variance trends.
Analyse recurring issues and contribute to process improvements.
General Duties
Assist with interim and year-end stock audits.
Train and support warehouse staff on correct stock control procedures.
Support projects related to warehouse layout and stock management optimisation.

Experience in stock control, inventory management, or warehouse operations.
High attention to detail and a methodical approach to tasks.
Strong problem-solving and analytical skills.

Ability to prioritise workload and adapt to changing priorities.
Desirable:
Experience in FMCG, logistics, or manufacturing environments.
Knowledge of HACCP and/or handling of dangerous goods.

Flexibility is key for this role. During the initial 3-4 months, you'll be required to support intensive stocktaking efforts, including occasional Saturday work, to support our system transition.
