Key Responsibilities

Warehouse Operations & Inventory Control

• Inventory Management: Monitor stock levels, track routine project supplies (including Brushman orders), and request reorders before inventory is depleted to prevent project delays.

• Documentation & Reporting: Process incoming and outgoing material transfers ensuring appropriate job names are recorded.
• Physical Audits: Conduct monthly physical inventory counts in strict coordination with the Operations Manager, who oversees posting the final monthly metrics.
• Facility Standards: Maintain a clean, highly organized, and OSHA-compliant warehouse, organizing materials by product type, manufacturer, and project status for immediate retrieval.

Logistics & Fleet Management

• Driver & Delivery Scheduling: Coordinate incoming deliveries, jobsite deliveries, and pickups. Utilize organizational tools (e.g., Google Calendar) to optimally schedule drivers, equipment routing, and returns.
• Fleet Tracking: Manage fleet operations using the company tracking spreadsheet. Assign trucks, schedule vehicle pick-ups and disposals, run maintenance reports, notify drivers of required actions, and follow up to ensure compliance.
• Regulatory Compliance: Track and schedule annual DOT certifications and inspections for all assigned company trucks and trailers prior to expiration.

• Return Processing: Enforce the return policy requiring field teams to provide advance pictures and an itemized list of all returning equipment to facilitate effective turnaround scheduling.

• Standardized Safety Kits: Assemble and maintain safety equipment boxes (utilizing black totes) according to the division’s approved contents list. Always maintain a rolling stock of at least 15 fully assembled boxes.
• Loose Inventory: Track and maintain a small, accessible inventory of individual safety items to accommodate immediate, ad-hoc requests from field crews.

• Maintain Traceable Records: The division must be able to accurately identify the real-time location of all materials and equipment, tracking all movements between the warehouse and project sites.
• Keep Inventory Current: Transactions must be recorded promptly, discrepancies investigated, and shortages communicated well before they impact field operations.
• Communicate Proactively: Project teams require timely notices regarding delivery schedules, missing items, damaged goods, or equipment issues.
• Protect Company Assets: All materials and equipment must be securely stored, carefully handled, and fully accounted for during project closeout.
