• Knowledge of Inventory Flow: Receiving, Inspection (GRN), Binning, Issuance, and Returns.

• Understanding of storage principles, including specialized storage for sensitive electronics, rubber gaskets (shelf-life), and lubricants.

System & Process Control

• Working knowledge of ERP/SAP (MM Module) for inventory tracking, stock adjustments, and purchase requisitions.

• Awareness of "Min-Max" levels, Lead Time, and Safety Stock concepts to prevent stock-outs during critical breakdowns.

Compliance & Documentation

• Understanding of 5S and Safety standards within a warehouse environment to maintain a hazard-free workspace.

B. SKILLS & ABILITIES

Operational & Technical

• Ability to identify and verify technical specifications of parts (e.g., bearing numbers, motor ratings, valve types) against purchase orders.

• Skilled in operating inventory software to maintain 100% data accuracy between physical and system stock.

• Capability to handle measuring tools (vernier calipers, multimeters) to verify incoming part dimensions or specifications.

Loss Control & Efficiency

• Skilled in Cycle Counting and periodic physical verification to minimize inventory discrepancies.

• Ability to prevent "Dead Stock" or obsolescence through FEFO/FIFO (First-Expired, First-Out) management of consumables and chemicals.

Record Keeping & Coordination

• Ability to maintain accurate maintenance logs, calibration records for store tools, and vendor delivery documents.

• Strong coordination skills with Procurement, Finance, and Maintenance teams to ensure the right part is available at the right time.

C. ATTITUDE

• Precision & Integrity: Extremely detail-oriented in counting and recording; zero tolerance for undocumented part withdrawals.

• Service-Oriented: A proactive mindset to support the maintenance team quickly during emergency "Machine Down" situations.

• Ownership Mindset: Takes full responsibility for the security of high-value engineering assets and the organization of the store.

• Standard-Driven: Strict commitment to 5S and safety protocols, ensuring heavy parts are stored safely and the area is clutter-free.

D. OTHER JOB REQUIREMENTS

• System Literacy: Proficient in MS Excel and SAP/ERP environments.

• Physical Fitness: Ability to handle heavy spare parts, climb ladders for binning, and work in a warehouse environment.

• Technical Familiarity: Prior experience in FMCG or high-speed manufacturing environments is highly preferred.

• Flexibility: Willingness to support emergency repairs or audits outside of standard working hours if required.

Engineering Inventory & Parts Management

• Execute the receipt, inspection, and systematic storage of engineering spare parts, tools, and consumables (bearings, seals, electrical components, etc.).

• Operate the ERP/SAP system to perform real-time transactions for stock issuance, returns, and receipts to ensure inventory accuracy.

• Monitor "Min-Max" stock levels and lead times to trigger purchase requisitions, preventing operational downtime due to missing critical spares.

Stock Integrity & Audit Compliance

• Ensure 100% stock traceability by accurately recording serial numbers, batch numbers, and shelf-life for sensitive components (lubricants, gaskets, electronic sensors).

• Perform regular cycle counts and wall-to-wall physical audits to identify variances and report discrepancies to the Engineering Lead.

• Ensure strict adherence to binning and labeling standards, ensuring every item is stored in its designated location for rapid retrieval during breakdowns.

Store Handling & First-Line Maintenance

• Conduct routine inspections of storage conditions (temperature, humidity, dust control) to prevent corrosion or degradation of high-value technical assets.

• Support the upkeep of the engineering store area by implementing 5S principles, ensuring all aisles, shelves, and heavy-part racks are safe and accessible.

• Respond to urgent part requests during emergency breakdowns and coordinate with the procurement team for local sourcing or expedited deliveries.

Safety & Material Handling

• Ensure the safe handling of heavy engineering components (motors, pumps) and hazardous materials (industrial oils, degreasers), maintaining PPE and spill kit compliance.

• Maintain storage discipline for specialized tools and "Critical Spares," ensuring they are preserved in ready-to-use condition.

• Support safe lifting and material movement within the store using manual or mechanical handling equipment to prevent accidents and damage to parts
