Role Purpose

We are looking for a hands‑on and highly organised Supply Chain, Logistics & Warehouse Coordinator who can take ownership of the movement of stock from planning and procurement through to warehousing, distribution and final delivery to customers or project sites.

This is not purely a warehouse administration role. The successful candidate will need to understand the full supply chain, identify potential issues before they become problems, coordinate multiple parties and ensure that stock, transport, documentation and deliveries are aligned with customer requirements.

The role will suit someone who enjoys working in a fast‑paced environment, is comfortable dealing with suppliers, transporters, warehouses, customers and internal departments, and is able to move between planning, analysis and hands‑on operational execution.

• Ensure supplier documentation is accurate and received timeously.
• Assist with resolving shortages, incorrect quantities, damaged goods, late deliveries and other supply issues.
• Maintain strong working relationships with local and international suppliers.
• Ensure changes to orders or requirements are communicated to all relevant parties.

3. Logistics & Import Coordination

• Monitor vessel, shipment and transport status and provide accurate ETA updates.
• Coordinate with freight forwarders, clearing agents, transporters, suppliers and internal teams.

• Follow up proactively on delayed shipments, customs issues, documentation discrepancies and transport delays.
• Coordinate collections and deliveries and ensure the correct stock is allocated to the correct customer/project.
• Assist with freight planning and cost comparisons where required.
• Maintain visibility of stock in transit and ensure expected arrivals are communicated to the relevant teams.

4. Warehouse Management & Coordination

• Coordinate day‑to‑day warehouse activities and ensure effective stock movement and control.
• Monitor receiving, put‑away, picking, packing, dispatching and stock transfers.
• Ensure stock is correctly identified, counted, stored and allocated.
• Maintain accurate inventory records and investigate discrepancies.
• Coordinate regular stock counts and assist with stock reconciliations.
• Monitor warehouse capacity and identify potential space constraints before they become operational issues.
• Ensure stock is handled, stored and dispatched in a manner that minimises damage and unnecessary handling.
• Coordinate stock transfers between locations where required.
• Ensure warehouse documentation and system transactions are completed accurately and timeously.
• Work with warehouse teams to improve stock accuracy, organisation and operational efficiency.
