Job Summary

The role demands a hands-on operator who combines factory-floor understanding with analytical rigour, commercial judgement, and exceptional cross-functional leadership.

2. Inventory & Stock Management
- Own end-to-end inventory across raw materials, packaging materials, work-in-progress, and finished goods.
- Maintain high inventory accuracy through disciplined stock reconciliation, cycle counts, physical verification, and system controls.
- Establish optimum stock norms, safety stocks, reorder points, and inventory ageing controls to prevent stockouts, overstocking, and working-capital lock-up.
- Implement FIFO/FEFO practices, batch traceability, expiry monitoring, and controls on obsolete, damaged, or slow-moving inventory.
- Improve inventory turns and material availability without compromising service levels or production continuity.
3. Procurement & Vendor Management
- Ensure timely procurement of raw materials and packaging in line with production plans and demand requirements.
- Build solid vendor relationships, monitor supplier performance, and proactively manage lead times, quality issues, and supply risks.
- Drive cost optimisation, purchase planning, and supply continuity without compromising quality or delivery commitments.
4. Demand Planning & Customer Fulfilment
- Collaborate with Sales and Commercial teams to align forecasts, promotional requirements, new launches, and market demand with supply capabilities.
- Own order fulfilment, dispatch planning, service levels, and on-time-in-full (OTIF)
performance.
- Anticipate demand fluctuations and supply constraints; implement corrective actions before they impact customers.
5. Cross-Functional Leadership & Execution
- Build solid working relationships with Manufacturing, Procurement, Quality, NPD, Sales, Finance, and Warehouse teams.
- Establish clear ownership, review mechanisms, escalation protocols, and data-driven operating rhythms.
- Communicate proactively, resolve interdepartmental conflicts constructively, and drive decisions through facts rather than assumptions.
- Take end-to-end accountability for problems, ensuring timely closure rather than merely escalating issues.
