- Assist the Supply Chain Manager with operational coordination, reporting, continuous improvement initiatives, and day-to-day team support.
- Maintain accurate documentation, records, and customer communications to support compliance and operational transparency.
- Provide support across national operations during peak periods, staff leave, or business-critical supply chain activities.
- Contribute to maintaining quality systems, WHS standards, and supply chain best practices across the business.
