• Ensure operational processes and documentation are completed accurately and retained appropriately, supporting audit readiness and traceability.

People supervision & performance

• Allocate tasks, monitor performance, and address issues proactively (quality errors, damages, shortages, missed cut-offs)
• Promote engagement and teamwork between warehouse operations and the Solar & Cable commercial team

Stock integrity & hub presentation

• Support strong stock control disciplines (location accuracy, damage control, quarantines, cycle count support where applicable)
• Maintain hub standards: tidy warehouse, compliant storage, clear walkways, correct racking use, and appearance
