Your Responsibilities
You will be responsible for end-to-end warehouse operations in a Special Economic Zone (SEZ) environment. This includes managing GDP compliance , regulatory coordination with KRA/KPA/PPB , emergency response readiness , and high-volume kitting operations for NGO and donor-funded programs (e.g., UN, USAID, Global Fund).
This role is not just about moving boxes—it’s about building a warehouse of the future that responds to global emergencies with speed, precision, and purpose.
Why You Might Not Be the Right Fit
- Initiative Required: If you prefer to only follow instructions, this is not the place for you. We need people who go beyond what is asked for.
- High-Stakes Work: If you’re looking for a standard 9-to-5 job, you will struggle here. Our mission often involves responding to urgent health emergencies, where we literally save lives.
- Open Communication: We value direct feedback at all levels, including senior management. If this makes you uncomfortable, AMEX will not be the right environment.
What We Expect From You
- A proven ability to go the extra mile, see the big picture, and take initiative. Exceptional attention to detail and accuracy.
- A strong academic record (BA/MA/PHD) and/or other notable achievements (e.g., excellence in sports, arts, or extracurricular activities).
- Fluency in English (both written and spoken) – background in pharma/healthcare is a plus.
