• Using computer systems and inventory management software to process receipts, track stock, and generate reports.
• Ensuring stock levels are accurate and materials are stored correctly to support operational efficiency.
• Maintaining a clean, organised, and safe working environment in line with health and safety standards.
• Supporting other warehouse and logistics duties as required.
