Verify operational compliance with Food Safety & Quality Assurance (FSQA) guidelines, Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), and local Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) regulations. 2.

Ensure plant and warehouse operations conform to local environmental, weights and measures, and consumer protection standards. 4.

Maintain a central Compliance & Audit Tracking Log to follow up on corrective action plans (CAPs) with plant managers, logistics heads, and regional sales leads. 5.

Professional Experience: 1 to 3 years of hands-on experience in compliance auditing, stock/inventory audit, operational risk, or quality assurance—preferably within FMCG, retail, manufacturing, or logistics sectors. Key Competencies & Technical Skills FMCG Operational Knowledge: Basic understanding of FMCG supply chain dynamics, warehousing operations, distribution networks, and inventory control systems (FIFO/FEFO). Quantitative Data Analytics: Strong capability to analyze large datasets (sales trends, inventory variances, shrinkage logs) using MS Excel (VLOOKUP, Pivot Tables, data modeling); knowledge of ERP systems (SAP, Sage, or Oracle) is a strong advantage. Regulatory Knowledge: Solid understanding of internal control frameworks, corporate governance, occupational health and safety standards, and local statutory/labor compliance. Meticulous Inspection Skills: Sharp physical and analytical eye for detail during inventory counts, process checks, and operational reviews. Communication & Report Writing: Ability to articulate complex operational and numerical findings into concise, objective compliance reports for management.

  • Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
  • Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
  • Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
  • Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
  • Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
  • A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
