What You Can Expect:

Lead and manage day-to-day inventory control activities, including cycle counting, inventory accuracy, reconciliation, investigation and resolution of discrepancies.
Analyze inventory data and warehouse activity to identify trends, root causes, inefficiencies and opportunities for improvement.
Develop and implement inventory optimization and slotting strategies to maximize warehouse space, improve product flow and support more efficient operations.

Work closely with Operations leadership, including warehouse supervisors and managers, to align inventory strategies with overall operational objectives.
Prepare and analyze inventory reports and KPIs, including inventory accuracy, discrepancies, root causes and corrective actions.

Strong understanding of warehouse processes and how inventory management impacts inbound, outbound and overall facility operations.
Experience working directly with customers or internal stakeholders on inventory performance, discrepancies and service requirements.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to identify root causes and develop sustainable solutions.
Demonstrated leadership ability with experience coaching, directing and developing a team.
