• Perform visual inspections for any damages or discrepancies.
• Ensure all received items are correctly labelled, documented, and entered into the inventory management system (e.g., ERP).
• Coordinate with Quality Control for technical inspections where applicable.
• Ensure traceability and proper documentation of aviation-specific items requiring serial/batch number tracking and certification.

Desired Experience & Qualification

• Grade 12 (Matric)
