• Conduct regular cycle counts, physical inventories, and spot audits to verify inventory accuracy and resolve discrepancies promptly
• Generate and analyze inventory reports (accuracy rates, turnover, aging stock, warranty, etc) and present insights to management
• Continuously evaluate and improve inventory processes using data-driven decision-making and lean principles
• Other duties assigned by manager

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's Degree in Supply Chain Management, Business Administration, or related field, or a combination of education and experience

• Ability to think systematically and build scalable processes and procedures
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a high attention to detail and accuracy
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
• Prior supervisory experience managing a small team; ability to lead, train, and hold associates accountable

The Environment

• Fast-moving, hands-on, no-nonsense, and fun
