pPAVE Space is building LYOBA, a heavy kick stage moving over 4-tonne payloads from LEO to high-energy orbits in under 24 hours. Engine hardware, spacecraft parts, machine tooling, raw stock, consumables, fluid components, electronics; tens of thousands of items a year, landing across two sites. That's the volume. You're the discipline behind it. /ppEngine campaign hardware is starting to arrive, spacecraft parts are being ordered weekly, the Workshop is coming online with all its tooling and stock — and the volume is real. The receiving and inventory function has been informal, handled by whoever's nearest the door. That doesn't scale. You'll take it over and make it run, on a timeline measured in weeks, not quarters. /ph3You will own /h3pReceiving and content verification on every shipment: counting, comparing against the PO, escalating discrepancies to Procurement and Metrology /ppInventory organisation across Villeneuve hall, Villeneuve admin, and Chavalon, what's where, how it's labelled, how it's found again /ppStock levels and reorder points for consumables: gases, fluids, machine tooling, fasteners, lab and office supplies /ppOutbound shipping to customers, to suppliers for rework, to external test or qualification labs /ppHazardous materials handling at the receiving and storage interface, in coordination with HSE /ppDangerous goods documentation for inbound and outbound shipments (ADR for road, IATA for air) /ppInter-site logistics between Villeneuve and Chavalon: what moves when, who drives, what needs special handling /ppThe inventory system itself: inventory tool setup, labelling discipline, the routines that keep the database matching the shelves /ph3What we are looking for /h3p3+ years of logistics or warehouse operations in an industrial, manufacturing, or aerospace environment /ppDirect experience with receiving, inventory management, and shipping at real volume /ppComfortable with ERP or inventory systems (SAP, Odoo, NetSuite, or equivalent) /ppFamiliarity with dangerous goods regulations (ADR for road, IATA for air) /ppOperationally precise: you count, label, and follow up without being reminded /ppPhysical comfort with handling shipments, including heavy or awkward loads /ppFrench and English, both fluently /ppNice to have: forklift or pallet jack certification (or willingness to certify); aerospace, defence, or precision-industry receiving experience; experience setting up an inventory system from scratch rather than inheriting one. /ph3You will fit if /h3pYou take pride in an inventory that matches reality: every part, every shelf, every time. /ppYou'd rather catch a wrong shipment at the door than three weeks later when someone needs it. /ppYou see your job as making sure no engineer ever has to ask "where is it?" twice. /ppYou like the rhythm of a busy receiving dock and the discipline of a clean stockroom. /ppYou're comfortable telling a supplier their shipment is short and standing behind the count. /ppThe job is fully on-site, split between Villeneuve (VD) and Chavalon twenty minutes away. The receiving and inventory function is being built as you take the seat; you'll be defining the system, not inheriting it. This is hard and early. If you want a mature warehouse with an established ERP and a team of receivers, this is the wrong seat. If you want to build the system that keeps the most ambitious space programme in Switzerland supplied, it's the right one. /p #J-18808-Ljbffr
