• Develop and maintain stock codes, cataloguing standards, and material master data.
• Drive obsolescence reviews and rationalise slow-moving stock.
• Manage insurance spare inventory for emergency preparedness.
• Contribute to the development of supply chain specifications and continuous improvement initiatives.

Our hiring decisions are not only based on your experience and skills, but your passion, attitude and alignment to our core values.

What you will bring:

• Proven experience in supply chain or material management within an engineering or utilities environment.
• Strong knowledge of MRO supply chains and quality standards (e.g., ISO9001).
• Excellent problem-solving skills and a practical, analytical mindset.
• Confident communicator with the ability to influence and collaborate across teams.
