• Monitor and improve shipping lead times; target ≤ 3 weeks from payment and end of production to delivery.

• Update Sage X3 records in real time: stock receipts, intercompany transfers, deliveries, and invoicing.
• Participate in bi-annual full inventories and monthly spot audits; contribute to maintaining stock discrepancy below 2%.

3. Communication & Process Development

• Act as an operational link between the Logistics department, Production, Artist Studios, Sales, and Gallery teams to ensure fluid, structured communication.
• Contribute to developing and documenting standard operating procedures for shipping, packing, installation, and condition reporting.
• Participate in cross-departmental process improvement initiatives to streamline.
• Actively contribute to the mise en place and optimisation of Logistics Department processes and organisation.

4. Fairs, Exhibitions & HNWI Client Installations

• Handle end-to-end logistics for art fair participation: planning, transport, customs, booth set-up, artwork installation, and de-installation.
• Coordinate with the Fairs & Exhibitions team on retroactive calendars, steering meetings, and cross-departmental milestones.
• Manage HNWI client installations with a luxury-standard approach: meticulous planning, white-glove handling, and post-installation follow-up.
• Contribute to carbon footprint tracking per fair and material reuse objectives (target 70% reuse rate).

5. Budget & Cost Control

• Participate in tracking local logistics budgets and operational expenditure.
• Verify supplier invoices, compare quoted vs. actual vs. invoiced amounts, and flag discrepancies.
• Identify cost reduction levers in crate production, transport, and storage operations.
• Contribute to a monthly budget review meeting with the Global Head of Logistics, Fairs & Exhibitions.

6. Client Satisfaction

• Drive improved satisfaction by streamlining communication with Production and increasing direct shipments from artist studios.
• Contribute to the design and implementation of a client satisfaction tracking methodology in collaboration with Sales and Production.
• Maintain luxury-standard delivery experiences for all client-facing operations.
