We are seeking an experienced Inventory Analyst with strong hands-on Warehouse Management System (WMS) expertise to own WMS accuracy, configuration, reporting, and inventory data integrity across our distribution operation. This role is about more than counting stock — you will be the go-to expert for how our WMS is used, configured, and maintained day-to-day.1
What you’ll do
WMS operation and configuration
- Act as the primary system owner for the WMS: manage item master data, locations, zones, slotting logic, replenishment rules, picking waves, cycle-count programs, and workflow templates.
- Review and maintain WMS configuration across receiving, put-away, pick, pack, replenishment, transfer, and dispatch processes.
- Investigate and resolve WMS transaction errors, stuck orders, mis-picks, and failed scans; coordinate root-cause analysis and corrective actions.
- Work with the IT/systems team to test and deploy WMS upgrades, patches, and configuration changes; run UAT and document outcomes.
- Manage WMS user accounts, roles, and permissions; train warehouse staff and supervisors on correct system use.
Inventory accuracy and control
- Reconcile physical stock with WMS, ERP, and finance records; investigate variances, shrinkage, damages, and adjustment trends.
- Plan and execute cycle-count programs, physical inventories, and stock audits; maintain inventory accuracy and compliance metrics.
- Maintain accurate lot, serial, expiry (FIFO/FEFO), and unit-of-measure master data within the WMS.
- Identify and eliminate sources of data corruption — mis-scans, duplicate transactions, system errors — and improve process discipline.
Reporting and improvement
- Build and maintain WMS dashboards and reports: inventory accuracy, order fill rate, cycle-count performance, adjustment variance,
slotting efficiency, and throughput trends.
- Analyse WMS transaction data to identify bottlenecks, slotting inefficiencies, and process gaps; recommend and implement improvements.
- Support month-end and audit activities by producing reliable inventory and transaction records.
- Partner with warehouse supervisors, supply chain, IT, and finance to align system use with operational and control requirements.
What you’ll bring
- 2+ years’ experience as an inventory analyst, inventory controller, or WMS super-user within a warehouse or distribution setting.
- Demonstrated hands-on WMS ownership — configuration, transaction troubleshooting, cycle counts, master data, reporting, and user support.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a practical, root-cause approach to data errors and process gaps.
- Advanced Microsoft Excel skills (pivot tables, lookups, reconciliation of large datasets); experience with Power BI, Tableau, or similar BI tools is a plus.
- Strong communication skills and the ability to translate technical system behaviour into operational language for warehouse and finance stakeholders.
- Understanding of inventory control principles — cycle counting, reconciliation, FIFO/FEFO, stock adjustments — and how they are enforced in a WMS.
Desirable
- Hands-on experience with Paperless WM, SAP WM/EWM, Oracle, NetSuite, Blue Yonder, Manhattan, HighJump, or a comparable WMS.
- Experience supporting WMS implementation, migration, or upgrade projects.
- Barcode/RFID scanning and RF-gun workflows.
- APICS CPIM, CSCP, or similar supply chain certification.
Why join us You will be the operational backbone of how our warehouse runs on its systems — with direct influence over configuration, data quality, process design, and the accuracy our business depends on.
