Supply Specialist - Warehousing

To all my ex-Navy or ex-uniform logistics mates! (you know who you are).
If you recently finished in the ADF or are currently transitioning or have worked in a defence environment supporting warehousing and supply support, this is the job for you.
With a global presence and large project backing our client is growing a specialist team of inventory and supply specialists to support (in my opinion) one of the better Navy departments for Mine Warfare capability and driving key items and repairables for operational needs.
Must be an Australian Citizen with a previous or current Defence security clearance for access to site.
Permanent full-time, 5 days on-site with other benefits on offer.
