About the Opportunity
The size, scale and dynamic nature of our Inventory operation is a fast paced and exciting environment to be in and we’re looking for an experienced inventory leader who would love to join us.
As an integral member of our national NZ Manufacturing Stores team, you’ll be supporting our Clandeboye and Studholme sites while supervising our stores team and building key internal stakeholder relationships.
