What's the role?

We are seeking a proactive and experienced Warehouse Supervisor to join our team at the Sunshine manufacturing site. This is a full-time, on-site leadership role where you'll oversee the safe, efficient, and accurate movement of raw materials and finished goods across a complex, multi-product warehouse operation. You'll lead a team of 15, ensuring that our logistics function supports production, meets customer expectations, and aligns with AkzoNobel's high standards for safety, quality, and performance.

We will count on you to:

  • Plan, coordinate, and supervise all warehouse activities, ensuring timely receipt, storage, and dispatch of materials. You'll be the go-to person for ensuring that nothing falls through the cracks—from raw material intake to final product delivery.
  • Identify and mitigate hazards across safety, health, security, and environment. You'll be a visible safety leader, embedding AkzoNobel's HSE values into every process and decision.
  • Oversee stock control processes, investigate discrepancies, and implement best practices to maintain real-time inventory accuracy. You'll ensure that every item is stored, labelled, and tracked to the highest standard.
  • Oversee the pre-batching of raw materials for the Paint and Powder plants, ensuring production lines are never delayed due to material shortages.
  • Monitor and control warehouse costs to meet site financial targets. You'll also manage contractor relationships and ensure optimal staffing across shifts.
  • Building a High-Performance Culture: Coach, mentor, and develop your team to build a culture of accountability, continuous improvement, and operational excellence. You'll set clear expectations and help your team grow into their potential.

What You Will Bring:
  • Prior experience in warehousing and distribution, ideally in a manufacturing environment.
  • Strong people leadership skills—you know how to motivate, develop, and engage teams.
  • Strong understanding of inventory systems and warehouse best practices.
  • Prior experience with SAP and/or WMS systems will be advantageous.
  • A proactive, hands-on approach to problem-solving and continuous improvement.
  • Excellent communication and organisational skills.
  • Experience managing budgets and working with inventory systems.
  • A strong commitment to safety and compliance, with experience in ISO9000/14001 environments.

What We Can Offer:
  • Career Pathway and Training: We're a global company committed to helping you achieve your career goals. You'll have access to training and development opportunities that open doors to your future.
  • Company Culture: Experience a dynamic and inclusive culture that values innovation and collaboration.
  • Performance Bonuses: You can earn more with performance bonuses on top of your base salary
  • Health and Wellbeing: Your health matters to us. Take advantage of free flu vaccinations, counselling services, and online support through our Employee Assistance Program.
