Warehouse Supervisor

If you believe that a well-run warehouse is a thing of quiet precision, that FEFO is a way of life rather than a suggestion, and that a stock count should balance to the batch, you may have just found your next move. The Role (or the engine room of Montego’s distribution) Reporting to the Warehouse & Logistics Manager, you’ll help keep the warehouse humming — supervising day-to-day operations, safeguarding our stock, and making sure every load leaves accurate, on time, and up to standard. You’ll lead a team, uphold our health, safety and food-safety standards, and bring a genuine appetite for continuous improvement to everything from receiving to returns. What you’ll be doing (besides being brilliant) Warehouse Operations & Stock Management Supervise warehousing processes in line with best practice and Standard Operating Procedures Monitor operational KPIs and feed concerns back to the Warehouse & Logistics Manager Keep OHS, hygiene, housekeeping, food-safety and merchandising standards firmly in place — and escalate any slips Keep an eye on the condition of the building — floors, walls, pipes — and flag maintenance needs Tighten receiving controls: spot-check deliveries, record shortages and overs, and investigate discrepancies Enforce best-practice stock management — pick-and-scan together, FEFO rotation, no mixing of batch numbers, frequent counts Manage out-of-stocks and overstocking, assist with cycle and full stock takes, and help minimise stock variances Administer warehouse damages per SOP, and drive a culture of continuous improvement with the team Distribution Administration Provide input during planning reviews for on-time, cost-efficient delivery to customers Ensure timely picking, staging and loading of stock according to Route Planning priorities Investigate shortages, assign teams to trips, and rotate staff fairly Handle distribution paperwork — work and loading sheets, delivery notes, invoices, proof of delivery Check loads against the loading sheet and hand the driver the right documentation Assist with fuel management and weighbridge administration where relevant Debrief every load on return per SOP, and manage returns through the correct procedures Fleet & Equipment Administration Monitor the condition of material-handling equipment and refer defects to the Warehouse & Logistics Manager Carry out daily and weekly vehicle inspections and complete the checklists with the driver Assist with arranging fleet and equipment maintenance People Management Manage the attendance and performance of your direct reports, guiding, supporting and — when needed — taking appropriate disciplinary action Grow your team through on-the-job training and honest feedback Take part in selecting and appointing new team members Run regular meetings, plan and approve leave, capture timecards and manage overtime Live and demonstrate the Montego culture, day in and day out Housekeeping, Health & Safety and Administration Keep all relevant administration up to date and report on warehouse and distribution performance against KPIs Uphold OHS and Food Safety (FSSC 22000) standards, and keep personal hygiene standards high Identify hazards and put corrective and preventative measures in place Spot improvement opportunities and work with the Warehouse & Logistics Manager to make them happen
