Description

About Lumax Energy:
Lumax Energy is a leader in engineered solar mounting structures, delivering reliable, high-performance solutions across Africa. Our warehouse forms the backbone of our operation — fast-paced, steel-focused, and precision-driven. We're looking for a hands-on Warehouse Manager to take charge of our operations and keep things moving like clockwork.

The Role:
We’re not looking for a clipboard manager. We’re looking for someone who knows what it’s like to manage steel stock, long extrusions, fast-moving parts, and the daily grind of a busy production-linked warehouse. You’ll lead a team of 30+ people, oversee order dispatch, stock control, and quality, and be the go-to person for ensuring everything runs smoothly and safely — day in and day out.

Key Responsibilities:

Manage daily picking, packing, and dispatch of steel components and accessories
Control stock levels, oversee regular counts, and eliminate loss and theft
Maintain accurate records using ERP systems and manual checks
Drive warehouse housekeeping — clean, safe, and organised is non-negotiable
Lead and manage warehouse staff: delegate, monitor, and hold accountable
Work closely with logistics to ensure timely movement of goods
Maintain ISO 9001 documentation and ensure compliance across operations
Identify process gaps and implement improvements with speed and precision
Promote a strong health and safety culture — equipment, PPE, and procedures
Operate and oversee heavy machinery use (e.g. forklifts, cranes)
Perform ad hoc duties as required to support business needs

Requirements

Requirements:

Proven experience managing a busy warehouse in the steel, manufacturing, or engineering sector (minimum 3–5 years)
Strong leadership skills with the ability to lead from the front and get stuck in
Confident using ERP systems and managing real-time stock movements
Experience managing high-volume smalls alongside large, heavy stock items
ISO 9001 knowledge and quality control awareness
Safety-first mindset — must know how to run a clean, compliant operation
Diploma or degree in logistics, supply chain, or business (preferred but not essential if experience is solid)

You’ll thrive in this role if you:

Work best in high-pressure, high-output environments
Understand steel/aluminium handling, packing, safety risks, and storage
Can keep staff focused, productive, and accountable
Are naturally organised and solutions-oriented

Benefits

What We Offer:

A dynamic and collaborative work environment.
Opportunities for growth and development in the renewable energy industry.
Exposure to exciting projects and warehouse management challenges.
