Key Responsibilities
Goods Receipt, Material Handling & Storage
- Accept and professionally inspect incoming goods at the Baden-Baden plant — checking delivery quantities, quality condition, and documentation accuracy against purchase orders and delivery notes before accepting and processing each goods receipt
- Perform professional material handling across all storage areas — applying correct handling procedures for aluminium pipes, hose systems, steel components, and other precision automotive parts to prevent damage and maintain product integrity throughout the warehouse
- Execute systematic storage and putaway of all received materials — assigning correct warehouse locations, updating inventory records promptly in ERP or warehouse management systems, and maintaining warehouse organisation and housekeeping standards
- Maintain accurate and up-to-date inventory records — conducting regular stock checks, contributing to periodic inventory counts, and identifying and reporting discrepancies between physical stock and system records to the logistics team
Order Picking, Production Staging & Material Supply
- Execute accurate order picking for production line supply — selecting the correct components, quantities, and variants required by production orders and staging materials at the right production locations at the right time to prevent line stoppages
- Provide reliable and timely material staging for XANDOR’s automotive component production lines — ensuring that production teams always have the right aluminium and steel components available when needed to meet manufacturing schedules
- Coordinate closely with the Production team on daily material requirements — communicating proactively about shortages, delivery delays, or staging changes that could affect production planning and customer delivery commitments
- Apply structured, reliable, and detail-oriented working methods to all picking and staging activities — maintaining the operational precision that Tier-1 automotive suppliers to Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and VW demand from their internal logistics teams

- Prepare all necessary shipping and accompanying documents — including delivery notes, customs documents where applicable, and customer-specific shipping paperwork required for automotive component deliveries to Mercedes-Benz, BMW, VW, and AMG
- Apply dispatching knowledge to coordinate goods outflows efficiently — managing shipping schedules, coordinating with logistics service providers, and ensuring all deliveries depart on time in accordance with customer delivery requirements and SLAs
- Monitor outbound shipment status and communicate proactively with Customer Service and Production teams about delivery schedules — ensuring all stakeholders are informed of dispatch confirmations, potential delays, or special handling requirements
Inventory Management, ERP & Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Manage inventory movements and stock records using ERP or warehouse management systems — ensuring all goods receipts, putaways, picks, and dispatches are accurately recorded in the system in real time to maintain reliable inventory visibility
- Apply inventory management and logistics control experience to identify and address stock discrepancies, slow-moving items, and storage optimisation opportunities — contributing to a lean, well-organised Baden-Baden logistics operation
- Collaborate professionally with the Production, Procurement, and Customer Service departments — acting as the reliable logistics interface that ensures material availability, shipping compliance, and delivery deadline achievement across the Baden-Baden plant
- Operate forklift and warehouse handling equipment safely and competently — holding a valid Staplerschein (forklift licence) or committed to obtaining one — maintaining all safety standards and equipment handling procedures throughout daily logistics operations
