1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

i start by putting any stock away that comes in and i am based on the parts back counter supplying parts for DAF workshop technicians. Throughout the day i will pick parts for customers and place them on the correct shelf to be delivered. Near the end of the day i will sort out the mail and send it out to be delivered
