Key Responsibilities

  • Lead, coach and motivate the bag warehouse team to deliver safe, efficient daily operations

You will bring:

  • High attention to detail and a proactive approach to problem‐solving
  • Excellent organisational and time‐management skills, with the ability to meet deadlines
  • Confidence working autonomously and taking ownership of outcomes
