Materials Coordinator - Warehouse & Inventory Control (QA/QC)

About the role

Eastern Gate Trading & Marketing is looking for a hands-on, disciplined Materials Coordinator (Warehouse & Inventory Control, QA/QC) to support its Inventory Controller in keeping warehouse operations accurate, organized and system-driven. The role suits someone with practical warehouse experience, exposure to ERP-based inventory systems and strong product handling knowledge, and who is comfortable working on the warehouse floor. It is not a purely administrative coordination role.

Key responsibilities

• Maintain warehouse materials in a clean, safe, structured and properly identified manner.
• Support receiving, inspection, sorting, storing, picking, packing, issuing, returns and dispatch.
• Verify materials against purchase orders, delivery notes, packing lists, item descriptions, quantities, sizes, grades, finishes and standards.
• Ensure proper segregation of accepted stock, pending inspection, rejected, damaged, returned and unidentified materials.
• Document and report material movements to support ERP-based inventory discipline.
• Coordinate with the Inventory Controller on system updates, stock verification and reconciliation.
• Assist in physical stock counts, cycle counts, bin-location checks and variance identification.
• Monitor fast-moving items and report minimum stock and reorder-level concerns.
• Make sure helpers and store staff follow approved SOPs and material handling practices.
• Ensure accurate picking, packing, labelling and dispatch, and maintain high standards of housekeeping, safety and stock visibility.
• Report discrepancies, damaged goods, stock mismatches, wrong storage, delayed postings or abnormal stock movement to the Inventory Controller.

Required profile

• Minimum 3 to 5 years of experience in warehouse, stores, inventory, logistics or material coordination.
• Prior experience in a structured organization with strict SOP adherence.
• Hands-on experience with ERP or computerized inventory systems; SAP B1 is an added advantage but not mandatory.
• Exposure to fasteners, fixings, industrial supplies, steel products, MEP materials or other complex SKU-based inventory is preferred.
• Basic QA/QC awareness of incoming and outgoing materials, and ability to identify materials by size, grade, finish, standard, quantity, packing and condition.
• Ability to use measuring tools such as measuring tape, vernier caliper, thread gauge, weighing scale or counting scale is preferred.
• Basic working knowledge of Microsoft Excel, Word and Outlook.
• Strong attention to detail, discipline, accountability and ability to work under pressure; able to coordinate with warehouse helpers and support staff.
• A Qatar/GCC driving licence is an added advantage.

Candidates apply with an updated CV; preference is given to those currently available in Qatar with relevant warehouse, inventory, ERP and industrial material-handling experience.
