Daily and monthly counts were a standard process to manage and control stock. In this role I was responsible for product quality and ensuring that the packaging is not damaged while we move the stock around for stacking and splitting.

Doing all this in a safe way. I had spent 3 years in Standerton where we achieved Silver Award.
