The Warehouse / Logistics Assistant coordinates and executes the assigned warehouse and/or logistics activities and processes, ensuring operational management of logistical providers and/or internal employees (e.g., warehouse staff, drivers) in line with specifications, orders, and safety policies. This role aims to ensure safe, efficient, and effective material and equipment storage and flows, optimally supporting the OpCo's production, warehousing, and distribution processes in realizing their objectives.
The Warehouse / Logistics Assistant is a support/execution role in Logistics/Supply Chain, focusing on administrative support and execution of the warehousing function, logistics, (outbound) transport, or a combination of both areas.
Typically, depending on the size and structure of the logistics/warehousing function, the Warehouse / Logistics Assistant will report to the Warehouse & Logistics Manager, or the Warehouse Manager or Transport/Logistics Manager. The larger the operation, the more specific the role of Warehouse / Logistics Assistant is likely to be, with a specialist focus such as stock control or transport planning. In smaller OpCo's, the business is more likely to require a Warehouse / Logistics Assistant to be an all-rounder, pitching in with all aspects of goods control and distribution, which may also include driving a forklift if required.
