**About Able Foods**

At Able Foods, we believe that everyone deserves the right to a life of independence and joy, and we know how important food is in delivering that. This means that older Australians, Australians with disabilities, and the care network that supports them have a food partner who always keeps their needs front of mind in every decision.

Our dedicated team understands what it means to create meals that cater to our client's unique needs. Through years of experience, we also know how to best manage both the NDIS and Aged Care (HCP) processes.

Our menu is specially designed with nutrition guidelines that don't sacrifice great taste, and our services are delivered with genuine care from a team who are experts in the NDIS and aged care landscape.

It's our mission to enable healthier, happier and more independent lives for each and every ability. **At Able Foods, we make food with purpose.**

**The Role**

The Supply and Distribution Manager oversees the fulfilment of food orders, ensuring efficiency and quality throughout the process. The role involves managing suppliers, improving operational performance, and overseeing food safety and compliance.

With a hands-on approach, including site visits and direct collaboration with partners, you'll troubleshoot and resolve supply chain issues while supporting process automation and business analysis initiatives.

- Delivery Performance Oversight: Review third-party logistics (3PL) providers' delivery performance, evaluate new delivery areas, and recommend improvements to enhance food quality and the delivery experience.
- Feasibility Study for Fulfilment Process: Conduct a feasibility study on fulfilment processes in VIC, SA, and QLD, aiming to reduce order-to-delivery lead times, similar to the NSW process.

**3. Supplier and Partner Relationship Management**
- Supplier Management: Manage supplier relationships, ensuring optimal performance and fostering symbiotic partnerships with food, packaging, storage, delivery, and freight partners.
- Process Ownership: Take ownership of processes and systems supporting supplier activities, including the implementation of inbound, storage, and fulfilment procedures on a WMS.

- Inventory Management:

- Closely monitor and control stock levels, managing Stock Keeping Units (SKU) and maintaining tight control over inventory and Cost of Goods (COGs).
- Work to optimise inventory management, improving margins and minimising stock wastage.
