Run daily cycle counts and support full monthly stock counts
Investigate and report discrepancies between physical and system stock, and help fix the root cause
Process stock transfers between store and warehouse with proper documentation
Monitor stock levels and raise reorder alerts before items run out
Keep stock areas clean, safe and orderly at all times.
What you must have
Minimum of 2 years’ experience in inventory, stock control or storekeeping in retail, wholesale or FMCG
Hands-on experience organising a stockroom or warehouse (shelf locations, labelling, bin systems)
Practical use of an inventory system or ERP (e.g. Odoo, ERPNext, Sage, QuickBooks, Zoho Inventory) or advanced spreadsheets
Working knowledge of SKUs and barcodes
Solid Excel or Google Sheets skills
Excellent accuracy with numbers and an eye for detail
Reliability, honesty and the discipline to follow processes every time
