Warehouse Assistant at Tushop

 

Tushop is a venture-backed technology-enabled company operating in Kenya. Our mission is to strengthen the welfare of communities by giving them more value with their groceries. We do so by aggregating communities’ demand for groceries to help them access wholesale prices and provide convenient delivery to end customers. Additionally, we work with Community Leaders, who earn an additional income for the work that they do within their communities.

The role:

Tushop is an early-stage startup and therefore your role will be foundational. We are looking for an operator who will lead the execution of our day-to-day warehousing activities and provide a vital link between delivery and pick up points by our suppliers and Community Leaders respectively. Your signature strengths are taking full ownership of your duties, working under minimal supervision, understanding abstract ideas with much ease and improvising applicable solutions. You are self-driven and have a track record of integrity and meeting ambitious targets. You turn plans into actions and follow up on baffling issues up to their conclusion. You make things happen.

Your responsibilities as our Warehouse Assistant will include:

Warehouse management:

  • Steer housekeeping activities along with the set standards
  • Implement warehouse arrangement plans; ensuring stock items are clearly labelled to avoid mix-ups and facilitate easy counting of inventory
  • Liaise with your manager to achieve and sustain top conditions of the warehouse infrastructure
  • Track all the physical movements of inventory to optimize handling and delivery lead times to customers
  • Monitor complete physical documentation accompanying every stock movement
  • Ensure proper arrangement of SKUs

System management:

  • Update all inventory control trackers in time
  • Ensure all warehouse receipts, issuances and returns have been correctly and timely posted, and point out transactions that have issues for quick action
  • Periodically count and report on the physical inventory vs system inventory counts as per schedule
  • Close the gaps leading to inventory variances between the warehouse and tracker numbers by conducting forensic internal checks to ascertain whether the issue can be traced back to the physical or system count
  • Run a stock movement spreadsheet that will track the floor stocks, enabling us to pick out the SKUs that require instant spot checks

Warehouse Assistant Requirements:

  • Diploma in Supply Chain, Logistics, Business Administration or any relatable field
  • Working experience with warehousing and inventory processes and systems
  • Multi-tasking and time-management skills in a fast-paced environment
  • Capacity to organize big data and pick out essential details
  • Ability to learn and implement new warehouse operating procedures
  • Good understanding of escalation triggers in your work situations
  • Intermediate proficiency in MS Office tools i.e., Excel, Word, PowerPoint
  • Background in supply chain
  • Embodies our values below

Our Values:

RACS – Reliable, Adventurous, Communal, Simple

  1. We find reliability sexy – our colleagues and customers trust that we can get things done, well.
  2. We are on an adventure – we are passionate, having fun, constantly learning, and being resourceful and frugal so that we can keep playing.
  3. We are Community Leaders – we champion the community internally and externally, are good-willed, value transparent two-way communication, and rise to the occasion when called upon.
  4. We simplify our processes to make life easy for ourselves and our communities.

Why Tushop?

If you’ve ever been curious to see the initial days of a company and be part of that story then this is your chance. Since we are at an early stage, you will be able to see and feel the direct impact of your work. You will have ownership of your tasks and you will not be micromanaged. You will make things happen. Lastly, you will work with a fun, fast-moving, customer-driven, reliable, and supportive team.

Why not Tushop?

We experiment a lot. If you like dotting all your i’s and crossing all your t’s before making a move then you might not enjoy working with us.

We are low-ego individuals. If you need praise, need to always be right, or need someone else to fail to feel self-worth, this role is not for you.

We believe that fieldwork makes the dream work. We don’t hide behind laptops every day; we instead thrive by engaging with customers, suppliers, partners, and teammates on the streets.

 

If this sounds like a place where you are looking to work, then come join us. If not, then please share this resume with someone who might be a great fit!
