Warehouse Manager –(Restructured Warehouse Operations)**

Position Overview

The Warehouse Manager will lead the complete transformation and day-to-day operations of Luxaddi’s warehouse. This role is responsible for building a streamlined, tech-enabled, process-driven warehouse system—from item code creation, inventory mapping, inward–outward control, project-specific dispatch planning, TAT-based execution, to final project sign-offs. The role demands strong coordination with Production, Procurement, Design, Finance, and Project Execution teams to ensure precision, speed, and zero-error deliveries for Luxaddi’s premium lighting and décor products.

Key Responsibilities1. Warehouse Restructuring & System Implementation

• Establish a new warehouse operating model aligned with COMPANY growth and premium service expectations.
• Create SOPs for every workflow: inward, quality check, storage, bin allocation, outward, project bundling, and dispatch.
• Set up digital inventory management, barcode labelling, stock accuracy methods, and audit mechanisms.
• Design optimal warehouse layouts, storage zoning, and material flow pathways.

2. Item Code Creation & Master Data Management

• Develop a standardized item code system for all SKUs: chandeliers, components, hardware, driver units, crystals, accessories, and project-specific items.
• Ensure all items have complete metadata: dimensions, material, finish, supplier, MOQ, lead time, safety stock levels.
• Maintain 100% accuracy in the Item Master and coordinate with Design + Production for new launches and custom products.
• Implement change control for revisions in item codes or BOM updates.

3. Inward Flow, Quality Control & Documentation

• Oversee all goods receipt processes for local suppliers, imports, project materials, and inter-unit transfers.
• Implement strict QC checkpoints with photographic documentation.
• Ensure GRN (Goods Received Note) accuracy for Finance and Production planning.
• Maintain rejection logs, return-to-vendor processes, and follow-up mechanisms.

4. Inventory Management & Stock Accuracy

• Maintain real-time, error-free inventory across all material categories.
• Conduct weekly cycle counts and monthly audits with Finance.
• Manage safety stock, reorder levels, ageing stock identification, and dead stock disposal plans.
• Set up Project Inventory Blocks to ensure materials for ongoing orders are reserved and not misallocated.

5. Project-Based TAT Management & Order Execution

• Work closely with the Project Execution and Sales teams to understand order timelines.
• Build TAT-driven dispatch plans for every project—mapping materials, assembling project kits, and preparing dispatch sets.
• Monitor and track material readiness against project milestones.
• Generate daily TAT reports: shortages, pending inward, QC status, packing timelines, logistics readiness.
• Ensure zero delay in project dispatches and accountability at every stage.

6. Outward, Packing, Dispatch & Logistics Coordination

• Oversee the complete outward flow, including packing standards, material bundling, documentation, and labeling.
• Implement sturdy project-wise packing procedures (crystal boxes, rods, fixtures, hardware sets).
• Coordinate with transporters, ensure delivery tracking, and maintain PODs (Proof of Delivery).
• Maintain damage logs and insurance claims if required.

7. Team Management & Training

• Lead, train, and supervise warehouse staff—storekeepers, pickers, packers, QA assistants, loaders.
• Build a strong culture of ownership, speed, and accuracy.
• Create training modules for SOP adherence and safety protocols.

8. Cross-Department Coordination

• Work directly with:
• Design Team (for new SKUs, BOMs, custom orders)
• Production (for manufacturing readiness and shortages)
• Procurement (for reorder and PO status)

• Strong understanding of inventory systems (ERP/WMS).
• Ability to build structured processes from scratch.
• Strong leadership, coordination and communication skills.
• High discipline, ability to handle pressure, and commitment to deadlines.
