Investigate and resolve discrepancies between physical inventory and ERP records
Reduce manual adjustments and improve cycle count effectiveness through root-cause analysis
Support continuous improvement initiatives tied to inventory accuracy and system utilization
Learn end-to-end product and process flow, including job clocking and system transactions
Contribute to future-state initiatives such as barcoding, forecasting, and enhanced reporting

Requirements:

Inventory systems experience – managed inventory in an ERP or inventory management system and understand system-driven controls
Strong computer and analytical skills – comfortable in Excel and Microsoft Office
reporting and data analysis are core to how you work
Personable and collaborative mindset – enjoys working with others, training users with varying technical skill levels, and building strong working relationships across the plant
Prior experience in inventory control, warehouse operations, supply chain, or manufacturing environments preferred
ERP experience required
Strong Excel skills
High attention to detail with the ability to work independently and proactively

Nice to have:

Familiarity with production planning, BOMs, WIP, or job costing is advantageous
Exposure to reporting dashboards or data visualization tools is a bonus
