The role:

Our Warehouse Administrators are the backbone of our logistics operation.

Systems Management: Navigate and update multiple platforms including Matflow, Mainframe, STS, Google, NPMS, and Vision.

What you’ll bring:

Proven Experience: A solid background in administration, ideally within a warehouse or logistics setting, with a focus on stock tracking.
Technical Savvy: You must be highly PC literate, specifically with Microsoft Excel; you should be comfortable producing data and reports using formulae and macros.
Communication Skills: The ability to communicate clearly and confidently, both in writing and verbally, with people at all levels of the business.
Organisation: A grounded and realistic approach to managing a busy workload in a fast-paced environment.
Accuracy: A keen eye for detail when handling complex data and performing investigations.
