Inventory Administrator (JB6304)
Location: Wadeville, Johannesburg
Salary: R25,000 to R29,000 per month CTC
Employment Type: Permanent
A distribution and warehousing business based on the East Rand is looking for a sharp, detail-obsessed Inventory Administrator to keep stock accurate, systems aligned and discrepancies firmly resolved. This is a company where numbers matter, records are taken seriously and the people who thrive are those who genuinely want to understand why something does not add up.
This is an office-based role with a systems and administrative focus, but it comes with real operational involvement. Expect to spend time in the warehouse, get hands-on during stocktakes and work closely with both the warehouse and accounts teams to keep everything running cleanly and accurately.

Two to five years of experience in stock control, ideally within a warehouse or distribution environment
Strong working knowledge of Pastel is essential
A basic understanding of accounting principles and journals
Solid computer literacy with proficiency in MS Office
Advanced Microsoft Excel skills
Strong numerical ability and a methodical approach to data
Excellent administrative and organisational skills with exceptional attention to detail
A proven ability to investigate discrepancies and follow them through to resolution
E-commerce experience is advantageous
Key Responsibilities
Maintain accurate physical and system stock levels across multiple platforms
Ensure all stock movements are recorded correctly and supported by the required documentation and system transactions
Process stock transfers between stores and monitor physical stock against the stock management system
Investigate and resolve stock discrepancies and unexplained variances thoroughly
Identify potential stock losses, control weaknesses and process gaps
Conduct physical stock checks when required to resolve system queries
Assist with order processing and invoicing functions
