* Oversee maintenance stores operations, including receipting, labelling, storage, and issuing
* Maintain accurate stock levels through min/max controls, replenishment, and cycle counting
* Analyse slow‐moving and obsolete stock and support disposal or recovery actions
* Support continuous improvement of store layout, workflows, and inventory accuracy
