Job Description:

We are seeking a methodical and detail-oriented Inventory Officer to manage the lifecycle of our stock and warehouse assets. In this role, you will be the guardian of our inventory data, ensuring that every item received—whether from Abuja or local vendors—is accurately documented, binned, and reconciled within our SAP system.

• Documentation Flow: Support the preparation and validation of GRNs, ensuring timely approval and meticulous filing for audit transparency.

2. Warehouse Organization & Bin Management

• Systematic Binning: Oversee the proper placement of items in designated shelf locations, ensuring an organized layout that allows for rapid retrieval and accurate stock counts.

• Notification System: Act as the communication hub, notifying relevant departments of newly received items to facilitate uninterrupted project and office operations.

• Needs Assessment: Raise and register memos for depleted store items, aligning with procurement timelines to prevent stock-outs.

3. Reporting, Compliance & Audit Readiness

• Inventory Analysis: Prepare periodic reports (weekly and monthly) that highlight stock levels, movement trends, and any identified variances.

• Audit Control: Maintain strict adherence to inventory management policies, ensuring that the store is always "audit-ready" through consistent record-keeping and risk control.

• Continuous Improvement: Work closely with the Store Manager to identify bottlenecks in store operations and implement corrective actions.

Core Competencies

• Analytical Mindset: Strong ability to reconcile data and identify root causes of stock variances.

• Integrity & Accuracy: High attention to detail in handling sensitive financial and operational documentation.
