Rob Bird Email and Phone Number

I work in conjunction with the Demand Planners for both Finished Goods and Spares and Accessories to procure supply of products to Australia and New Zealand. I work closely with our freight and shipping companies to track long term supply as well as analyse short term shortages for New Zealand.

I worked across two departments as a shared resource. For the Co-op I worked primarily in inventory control, producing an in depth daily sales analysis report to help manage textbook stock levels for all bookstores around Australia. For Australian Geographic I worked in the buyer's department as a merchandise planner and was in charge of all imported stock and national distribution. I also provided weekly sales reports and sell through figures for the company.

As a member of the commercial team at S&S I worked closely with the distribution manager in a procurement and inventory control role. I was responsible for ordering and tracking all overseas stock as well as costing all domestic prints. I also produced a weekly market analysis report which was used by the sales team to track our position within the Australian publishing industry.

I write a weekly article for Turfmate on new developments in the golf industry - primarily around the construction of new golf courses and the notable appointment of personnel to key management positions within the industry.

I worked as a tax accountant for clients with gross annual business income of $2 million a year or less. I also lodged personal tax returns and assisted the external auditor with records management and the generation of annual financial statements
