You and your team will be responsible for receiving shipments, inspecting and verifying aircraft parts, managing the physical flow of goods on-site, and maintaining various warehouses.

Your role involves being actively present on the shop floor daily, where you'll balance your duties as both a colleague and a direct supervisor. This close involvement allows you to support and coach your team effectively. You'll monitor internal processes, adjust when KPIs are not met, and continuously seek opportunities for improvement.
