  • Operational Excellence & Issue Resolution: Proactively address inbound challenges (e.g., ASN discrepancies) to maintain efficiency and improve vendor compliance.

  • Data-Driven Performance Management: Develop and oversee KPIs (e.g., defect-free receipts, dock-to-stock lead time, inventory accuracy) to measure success and drive continuous improvement initiatives.

  • Innovation & Cost Optimization: Identify opportunities to enhance inbound logistics processes, reduce costs, and implement scalable solutions that support business growth.

What you need

  • 8 years of warehouse, logistics or related experience
