Job Description
Description:Warehouse managers supervise deliveries of goods into warehouses and ensure products are accounted for are stored safely and securely and are despatched efficiently to customers. They also manage warehouse staff which includes ensuring that they are working safely.
Typical duties include:
- processing orders.
- operating mechanical and IT systems.
- operating machinery such as forklifts and pickers and ensuring it is in working order.
- liaising with transport companies suppliers and clients.
- supervising use of specialised storage such as refrigeration.
- training supervising and appraising staff.
- maintaining statistical and financial records.
- devising and monitoring rotas for staff.
- ensuring that quality objectives and delivery deadlines are met.
- managing budgets.
- administering stock control.
- keeping health and safety records and ensuring compliance with health and safety legislation.
- investigating accidents and troubleshooting problems.
There are many similarities with the work of logistics and distribution managers although a position as a warehouse manager is less involved in coordinating logistics on a large organisationwide scale and more focused on coordinating staff and products within the warehouse (although this still includes overseeing transport to and from the warehouse).
Some graduate schemes involve warehouse management although this is likely to be part of a logistics or supply chain role.
Warehouse managers may need to work shifts. You may also need to be on call to respond to emergencies out of hours for example if a member of the warehouse staff has an accident at work.
