Inventory Controller

The organisation is recruiting a Inventory Controller for its Pretoria operation. The role forms part of a wider logistics jobs portfolio across Gauteng.

About the Opportunity

This Inventory Controller role has been briefed against a clear set of outcomes for Pretoria. The successful candidate will work alongside an established team and will be expected to contribute meaningfully to the logistics jobs pipeline across Gauteng.

Communication runs both ways. Managers across the logistics jobs team in Gauteng make time for one-to-ones, and people are expected to speak up early when something needs attention.

Quality is everyone’s job. Whether the Inventory Controller is processing a transaction, supporting a colleague or handling a customer query, the standard expected in Gauteng is consistently high and consistently fair.

Reasonable working hours and respectful planning are part of how the role runs. The team values strong delivery, and load is balanced fairly across the logistics jobs group in Pretoria.

Our Commitment to Transformation

In addition, the organisation is committed to transformation and equal opportunity. Hiring is on merit, and applications are actively encouraged from women, youth, people with disabilities and other historically disadvantaged groups in line with the Employment Equity plan and B-BBEE objectives.

Practical steps back the words. Structured EE reporting, transformation initiatives and learnership programmes give real opportunities to candidates from across Gauteng.

B-BBEE compliance is more than a scorecard here. It informs how the business invests in skills development, supplier diversity and community engagement across the country.

Inclusive hiring extends through onboarding and into how teams operate every day. Respectful, fair conduct is expected from every team member in Pretoria.

Meet the Team

Importantly, the team you will be working with is fast-paced and energetic. Things move quickly across the Pretoria office, and the people who thrive here are the ones who plan ahead, communicate openly and pick up the slack when Gauteng operations get busy.

Equally, the team mix in Pretoria reflects a balance of experienced operators and emerging talent, with deliberate space for diverse voices and backgrounds.

Line management is hands-on without being heavy. Expect regular one-to-ones, honest feedback and the support needed to do good work consistently.

Collaboration is the default working mode. Whether picking up a quick query or working through a complex project, you will find colleagues willing to lean in and help.

Recognition matters here. Strong performers are noticed quickly, and many promotions across the business have started in the Pretoria teams.
