Openings: 1 Location: Nairobi – Mombasa Road (Cabanas area) Overview: Night shifts aren’t for everyone, but if you like owning the floor when it’s quiet, fast, and mission-critical, this one’s for you. Our client is hiring a Warehouse Supervisor to lead nighttime operations at a regional spare-parts DC off Mombasa Road. It’s a role for someone who can keep accuracy high, dispatch on time, and teams motivated when the world’s asleep. You’ll be the pulse of the night: managing pickers and team leads, closing every order cleanly, and ensuring cycle counts match the system to the bolt. The warehouse handles both urgent cross-dock orders and slower stock, meaning you’ll balance speed with control. If you’re calm under pressure, good with people, and know how to make a WMS sing, this is your kind of challenge. Expect autonomy, tight KPIs, and that sweet satisfaction when your shift ends and everything aligns exactly as it should. Key Responsibilities: - Lead night picking/packing/dispatch; manage rosters and briefings. - Enforce 5S, safety, and security controls. - Approve picks; investigate discrepancies; supervise cycle counts. - Check staging vs manifests; confirm dispatch documentation. - Train staff; coach on scan compliance and SOPs. - Publish shift report with KPIs and incidents. Education & Experience: - Diploma in Supply Chain/Business Mgmt. - 3–5 years warehouse ops with 1+ year supervisory. Skills & Tools: - WMS/handheld scanners, Excel, leadership, and incident reporting. KPIs: - Pick accuracy, lines/hour, injuries/near-misses, shrinkage. Compensation (Kenya): KES 70,000–120,000 + night-shift allowance + performance bonus. Figures are client estimates and vary with experience. Benefits: - Medical, PPE, meal/transport stipend. Growth Path: - Warehouse Supervisor → Assistant Warehouse Manager → Warehouse Manager. Ideal hierarchy and expected promotion cycle.
