About the Role

As the Warehouse Manager at Swiss Beauty, you will be the absolute custodian of our fulfilment hub. You will own the day-to-day operations of the warehouse—spanning inbound logistics, inventory management, put-away, high-speed picking/packing, and outbound logistics across B2C (D2C/marketplaces) and B2B channels. Your primary focus will be to maximize spatial efficiency, ensure 100% inventory accuracy, uphold rigorous safety and cosmetic storage standards, and scale operational capacity smoothly during high-demand promotional events.

Key Responsibilities
  • Oversee all daily warehouse floor operations: receiving, sorting, cross-docking, put-away, inventory counting, picking, packing, and dispatch.
  • Ensure that all outbound shipments conform to the strict packaging guidelines of distinct e-commerce platforms (e.g., Nykaa, Amazon, Myntra) to eliminate vendor chargebacks.
  • Optimize the physical layout of the warehouse, zoning fast-moving SKUs to minimize pick paths and improve overall throughput.
  • Maintain optimal warehouse conditions specific to cosmetics, including temperature control monitoring to protect product integrity.
  • Maintain near-perfect inventory accuracy (>99%) via organized cycle counts, wall-to-wall physical audits, and immediate system updates.
  • Strictly implement and monitor FEFO (First Expired, First Out) and FIFO (First In, First Out) pick protocols to avoid inventory write-offs due to shelf-life expiration.
  • Manage the end-to-end processing and reconciliation of Return to Origin (RTO) and customer returns, establishing strict QC checks to segregate resalable stock from damaged goods.
  • Act as the super-user for the digital Warehouse Management System (WMS) or native ERP warehouse modules.
  • Identify tech-driven bottlenecks on the warehouse floor and work with the IT/Systems team to deploy layout or barcode scanning improvements.
  • Directly manage, train, and motivate warehouse supervisors, data operators, and contractual labor forces, fostering a high-productivity, low-attrition environment.
  • Ensure absolute compliance with occupational health and safety regulations, fire safety protocols, and general facility security.
  • Manage third-party labor contractors, optimizing workforce strength dynamically to align with forecast sale volumes.
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
  • Despatch accuracy- 99.8 %
  • Delivery accuracy- 99.75 %
  • Inventory Accuracy: Maintain a minimum of 99.5% systemic-to-physical inventory alignment.
  • Order Picking/Packing Accuracy: Zero-defect goal on wrong items or missing items shipped.
  • Cost per Order (CPO) / Cost per Unit (CPU): Minimizing variable overheads, packaging waste, and spatial costs.
  • Throughput/Capacity Utilisation: Maximizing the number of units handled per square foot per day during peak operations.

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree
  • Experience: 5–8 years of experience running large-scale fulfillment operations. Mandatory preference for candidates with strong backgrounds in E-commerce fulfillment hubs, FMCG, Beauty/Cosmetics, or Retail.
