Warehouse Manager – Women's Apparel & Homewares

Are you ready to be the glue that keeps our business connected and running smoothly?

As our Warehouse Manager, you'll play a key role in overseeing the day-to-day operation of our warehouse and the flow of stock across our three retail stores and wholesale customers

From receiving and processing new deliveries to coordinating store replenishments, stock transfers and wholesale dispatch, you'll take ownership of making sure the right stock is in the right place at the right time.

You'll also manage and support three part-time warehouse staff members, coordinating workloads and daily priorities while remaining very hands-on in the day-to-day operation of the warehouse.

This role is ideal for someone who is highly organised, takes pride in getting things right and enjoys finding better ways of doing things. You'll have the independence to take ownership of the warehouse while working closely with our retail stores and department managers.

We're a small, fast-paced business, so flexibility and communication are essential. Priorities can change quickly, and we're looking for someone who can confidently take responsibility, solve problems and keep things moving.
