GP Embelton & Co Pty Ltd – Coburg North VIC

Reporting to the State Manager, the Warehouse Manager runs the daily operations of our Coburg warehouse; which includes stock management, carpet cutting, receipt and dispatch of goods, and the care of plant and equipment.

You will lead a team of six, including delivery drivers. You will be the person who makes sure that orders go out in full and on time, the warehouse is safe and orderly and the paperwork and systems keep pace with the work.

It is a practical and wide-ranging role with real ownership. One moment you are working cuts from a plan, the next you are coordinating a just-in-time delivery with a site supervisor, raising purchase orders, or running a toolbox talk. You will partner closely with site, project administrators and suppliers, and you will have the autonomy to improve how the warehouse runs. Success looks like a safe team, accurate stock and deliveries the site can rely on.

You will lead the day-to-day operations of Embelton's Coburg warehouse, managing a tight-knit team that keeps flooring product moving accurately and on time to sites across Victoria. This is a hands-on leadership role for an organised operator who takes pride in a protected well-run warehouse and wants the stability of a respected, century old business.
