- Environmental and Financial Reporting: Calculate annual packaging-waste obligations and support year-end inventory valuation and inventory-cost calculations
- Operational Reporting: Maintain accurate records and prepare regular inventory and performance reports
- Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with Supply Chain, Finance, Procurement, Logistics and external service providers to support effective operations
Who You Are
- You bring a relevant educational background or equivalent practical experience that enables you to succeed in logistics or supply-chain operations.
- You have experience in logistics operations, customs, warehouse coordination, transportation, customer logistics or a related supply-chain area. Practical knowledge of Turkish customs processes would be a strong advantage.
