  • Work with purchasing, sales, and warehouse teams to manage inventory levels and ensure smooth operations. Communicate inventory needs and issues effectively.

  • Develop and enforce inventory control policies and procedures to minimize losses. Train staff on best practices and continuously improve inventory processes for efficiency and effectiveness.

  • Monitor and control consumable item usage, ensuring efficient use and timely replenishment. Track consumption rates, forecast needs, and coordinate with departments to maintain stock levels.

  • Oversee accurate booking of parts and materials, ensuring proper recording in the inventory system and organized storage. Verify deliveries, update records, and organize storage areas for easy access.
