Position Overview
The Logistics Supervisor at Innomotics Nuremberg oversees the operational warehouse processes, covering inventory management, stocktaking, handling of missing parts, and scrapping. You clarify logistics questions with internal contacts and external service providers and make sure agreed solutions are carried out reliably in daily business. You also support users in warehouse management and act as the contact person for the relevant SAP processes in MM and WM, which means technical support, troubleshooting, and coordination with the responsible IT departments. The listing is clear that independent customizing is not part of the role. You coordinate damage management at the site for internal and external partners, take on special tasks, and support cross-department projects to develop site logistics further. You review existing processes, identify room for improvement, and develop practical, economical solutions with the departments involved. When required, you also help with Outbound Logistics and Import Customs Clearance, which keeps the supply chain running smoothly. It suits a structured, independent person who enjoys solving practical problems.
Why This Role Matters: In a plant that builds large motors and drive systems, parts are valuable and delays are costly. If stock records are wrong, a missing part can hold up an order. If damage is not handled properly, internal teams and outside partners end up arguing over what happened. If SAP users are stuck, warehouse work slows down. The logistics supervisor sits across all of this: keeping inventory accurate, resolving questions with service providers, supporting people who use the warehouse system, and improving the processes behind it. The work is practical rather than flashy, and it keeps a manufacturing site moving, which makes it a solid role for someone who likes order, systems, and getting things fixed.
