Stock Controller - Electronics

SUMMARY:
Looking for an ambitious Stock Controller to join a reputable company specialising in electronics.

POSITION INFO:

The succesful incumbent will be responsible for the below:

Ensure Stock Availability

The primary responsibility of stock controllers is maintaining optimal levels of stock at all times. Aside from constantly evaluating product count, they must foresee supply and demand, taking a strategic approach to replenishing so that both overstocking and running out of stock are avoided.

Handle Purchases and Transfers

Stock controllers carry out the entire phase of product purchasing, from selecting and negotiating with suppliers to tracking shipments and receiving orders. It’s their job to ensure that purchases arrive on time and in good condition. They also take charge of internal stock transfers, moving products to other store branches if needed or removing obsolete items.

Organize Storage

Once new items arrive, stock controllers place them into storage using a meticulous process that involves tagging, boxing, and labeling. Because they follow a specific organization scheme that guarantees ease of retrieval, preparing items for display becomes efficient, and they maintain a steady flow of stock from storage to shelf throughout the workday.

Record Inventory

Stock controllers maintain an accurate inventory of both stock items and transactions, noting down dates of purchase and receipt, item count and details, issues encountered, and more. They consolidate this into regular reports presented to other department units such as finance and sales.

Undertake Audits

Given the constant flow of products, stock controllers must undertake inventory audits to eliminate discrepancies. Audits for small batches occur every day, while large-scale audits may be performed monthly and annually. These involve checking for quality as well as making sure that finances add up and all products are listed in the inventory with correct details.
