What You’ll Do:
  • Generate and maintain inventory, production, and shipment reports from ERP systems to support operations and customer needs
  • Reconcile inventory balances across ERP, internal WMS, and customer WMS platforms
  • Conduct inventory audits, variance analysis, and onsite true-ups at third-party warehouses
  • Process shipping and receiving transactions (receipts, transfers, adjustments) with precision
  • Manage customer-specific SKUs including finished goods, WIP, and raw materials
  • Partner cross-functionally with Production, Warehouse, and Customer Service to resolve discrepancies quickly
  • Maintain accurate item, location, and quantity data across systems
  • Support documentation and reporting tied to customer service levels
  • Identify opportunities to improve inventory accuracy, reporting efficiency, and system alignment
 
What Makes You a Strong Fit:
  • High school diploma or equivalent required
  • 2–4 years of experience in manufacturing, supply chain, or inventory management
     (Food & beverage industry experience is a plus!)
  • Working knowledge of ERP and WMS systems
  • Proficiency in Microsoft 365, especially Excel
  • Strong analytical mindset with exceptional attention to detail
  • Clear communicator who collaborates well across departments
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment
