Manage day‑to‑day warehouse operations, including goods in/out, put‑away, picking, packing, and internal deliveries to the production floor.
Maintain accurate inventory records in our systems (ERP/warehouse software), ensuring stock levels, locations, and movements are recorded in real time.
Develop and implement stock control procedures and visual systems (labelling, locations, min/max levels, Kanban or similar) to reduce stockouts, over‑stocking, and waste.
Monitor and manage critical materials and long‑lead items to ensure availability for production and project schedules.

Oversee the care and maintenance of warehouse equipment (forklifts, pallet jacks, racking, etc.) and ensure inspections and servicing are up to date.
Lead, coach, and allocate tasks for warehouse and stock control staff, promoting a culture of ownership, accountability, and continuous improvement.
Enforce WHS standards and safe work practices in all warehouse operations.
Identify and drive process improvements to improve stock accuracy, reduce manual handling, and support overall factory efficiency.
Lead and co‑ordinate the weekly move of the module in the factory ensuring the greatest efficiency is achieved for the workforce and factory.

Minimum 3–5+ years’ experience in stock control, inventory management, warehousing, or a similar supervisory role.
Experience in construction, modular manufacturing, fabrication, or industrial/manufacturing environments is highly desirable.
