PDL Coffee Co. is a growing specialty café brand in the UAE, serving coffee and warm hospitality across its outlets — including sites run in partnership with government entities. Behind every cup is a supply chain that has to run on time, and that is where the Logistics & Warehouse In Charge comes in. You will run the central warehouse in Dubai and the flow of goods to every outlet, making sure coffee, food, packaging, and supplies are stored safely, tracked accurately, and delivered to the cafés on schedule.
About This Role — Logistics & Warehouse In Charge at PDL Coffee Co.
Company: PDL Coffee Co. — a growing specialty café brand with outlets across the UAE, including sites in partnership with government entities
Role Purpose: Run the central warehouse and the flow of goods to every outlet, from receiving through to delivery
Team: Supervises, trains, and schedules warehouse and delivery staff
Compliance: Keeps the warehouse in line with food safety and municipality rules, including temperature control and full traceability
Reporting: Reports stock levels, variances, wastage, and delivery performance to management every week
Why This Logistics & Warehouse Role in Dubai Stands Out
Hands-On Ownership: You run the whole warehouse-to-outlet chain — receiving, storage, picking, dispatch, and delivery
Food Safety Focus: Temperature control for chilled and frozen goods, traceability, and expiry management are central to the job
Leadership Scope: You supervise, train, and schedule warehouse and delivery staff
Growing Brand: A specialty café brand that is expanding means more outlets to supply and more scope for your role
Position Overview
The Logistics & Warehouse In Charge runs day-to-day warehouse operations — receiving, inspection, storage, picking, and dispatch — and keeps the warehouse compliant with food safety and municipality rules. You will apply FIFO/FEFO stock rotation and manage expiry dates, plan and schedule deliveries to all outlets, keep stock records accurate with regular cycle counts and month-end stock takes, set minimum and maximum stock levels, raise purchase requests with Procurement before items run short, inspect incoming deliveries against purchase orders, oversee vehicle maintenance and delivery documentation, keep the warehouse clean, organised, pest-controlled, and safe, and supervise warehouse and delivery staff.
Why This Logistics and Warehouse In Charge Role Stands Out: You control the complete supply chain from supplier delivery to the café counter, which gives you a clear view of how a hospitality business really runs, cold chain and food safety duties — temperature control, traceability, FIFO and FEFO rotation — build skills that are in steady demand across Dubai’s food and beverage sector, planning routes, vehicles, and drivers for every outlet develops practical logistics planning ability, working with Procurement on minimum and maximum stock levels links warehouse work to purchasing decisions, and weekly reporting on stock, variances, wastage, and delivery performance puts your results in front of management every week.
