• Receiving & Quality Assurance: Oversee the receipt of all incoming goods, ensuring they match purchase orders and meet quality standards before storage.

• Controlled Issuance: Manage the distribution of supplies to various departments, ensuring all outflows are authorized and documented to prevent shrinkage.

• Movement Tracking: Monitor the real-time movement of products in and out of the facility, ensuring the physical reality always matches the digital record.

2. Stock Optimization & Data Management

• Dynamic Stock Monitoring: Maintain optimal stock levels to prevent overstocking (capital tie-up) or stockouts (operational downtime).

• Digital Record Governance: Maintain surgical accuracy in stock records using ERP systems and specialized Excel sheets for coordination and tracking.

• Discrepancy Resolution: Conduct regular stock counts and reconciliations to identify and resolve variances between manual and computerized systems.

3. Store Organization & Safety

• Space Architecture: Organize the store layout to maximize accessibility, space utilization, and the safety of goods.

• Classification: Implement clear labeling and categorization systems (such as ABC analysis) to ensure efficient retrieval of materials.

• Inter-Departmental Liaison: Communicate effectively with procurement, finance, and operational teams to align inventory levels with business needs.

Qualifications and Skills:

Professional Profile

• Education: Bachelor’s Degree or HND in Business Administration, Supply Chain Management, or a related field.

• Experience: 2–3 years of proven experience in inventory control or warehouse management.

• Technical IQ: Proficiency in ERP systems and the Microsoft Office Suite, with advanced skills in Excel (vlookups, pivot tables, data tracking).

Core Competencies

• Organizational Prowess: Ability to manage multiple inventory streams and documentation tasks simultaneously without losing accuracy.

• Communication: Strong interpersonal skills to interact with suppliers and internal department heads.

• Analytical Thinking: Ability to interpret stock data to forecast future supply needs.
