  • Support the workshop team by ensuring parts, customer units and associated paperwork are available when required.
  • Help maintain clear visibility of products awaiting parts, customer approval, supplier input or dispatch.
  • Support administration of SharePoint, SAP or other internal systems used to track work, parts, purchase orders, dispatches and customer repairs.
  • Assist with customer updates where appropriate, ensuring information is accurate, professional and aligned with internal processes.
  • Support continuous improvement activities across logistics, stores, WIP control and general workshop administration.
  • Work within industry standard guidelines such as:
    • 5S – supporting a clean, organised and efficient stores, logistics and workshop environment.
    • Quality Management – working within ISO-based standards to ensure customer and stakeholder requirements are met.
    • Zero Harm – working within the Innomotics EH&S policy and location-specific health and safety criteria.
