Work History

Warehouse Coordinator

LVLY Pty Ltd
11.2021 - Current

In this role I have had to pivot from one task to another, think on my feet quickly and problem solve in order to "Make Someone's Day".

Key responsibilities include:

  • In charge of day to day operations of busy Brisbane warehouse.
  • Receiving of stock, stock control. Including stock take, transfers, rotating of stock
  • Ensure all same day and National orders are dispatched on time every day/ 7 days a week.
  • Liaise with different departments within the business-delivery partners, customer service, order management, floristry, suppliers and head office.
  • Admin tasks such as Resource Cost trackers of the different departments.
  • Ensure the warehouse is compliant with our OH&S policies including monthly audits
  • Run regular toolbox meetings
  • Recruitment and training of new staff
  • Rostering and Staff Management


Accomplishments:


  • Implemented a procedure for "after 5pm pick up" This ensures staff can leave on time instead of waiting for late drivers. This procedure meant that at the same time as the business saves money, our staff can leave on time ensuring a healthy work-life balance.
  • Writing of Standard Operating Procedures for the business
  • Writing and roll out of Inductions for new staff
  • Preparing and organising/overseeing of 2 extremely successful event dates in 2024 - both bringing record numbers to the business.
  • Manage storage area by organizing floor space, adhering to storage design principles and recommending improvements.
  • Team morale-I have had a positive impact on the team here in Brisbane. I have excellent relationships with my colleagues and in turn they respect me. They, like me often go over and above what is expected of them because I have worked hard to create a positive environment.
