Warehouse & Logistics Manager; Exports

At Montego Pet Nutrition, we don't just manufacture premium pet food—we deliver it to pets across the globe. From bustling ports to international distribution channels, our products travel far and wide, and we need a logistics leader who can ensure every shipment leaves our warehouse accurately packed, perfectly documented, and ready for the journey ahead.

We're looking for a Warehouse & Logistics Manager (Exports) who thrives on precision, planning, compliance, and operational excellence. If you can spot a batch discrepancy from a mile away, know your way around container loading plans, and believe that warehouse discipline is an art form, this could be your next adventure.

• Supporting the preparation and verification of export documentation.
• Maintaining complete records for containers, seals, batch allocations, and shipment confirmations.
• Supporting customer, regulatory, and food safety audits.
