Recruit, interview, and onboard the foundation team of warehouse operators, establishing a culture of "Right First Time" compliance early in the project
Post-Startup:
Following the successful go-live and validation, you will transition into the Warehouse Supervisor role responsible for leading a team of warehouse operators running a high volume GMP warehouse.
Direct daily warehouse activities, including receiving raw materials, staging for production, and shipping finished drug products for CVRM therapies.
Maintain near-100% inventory accuracy through a rigorous cycle counting program and real-time transaction monitoring within SAP/eWM.
