  • Conduct performance and appraisal interviews.
  • Handle absenteeism/reintegration and other conversations.
  • Ensure the right staffing.
  • Schedule training hours and maintain hours registration and personnel mutations.

You are a visible leader on the warehouse floor who knows how to motivate people and create a positive team environment. You proactively identify improvement opportunities, take ownership, and drive operational excellence. With these qualities, you can lead your team and bring out the best in them.
