\n

·        Utilize ERP platforms (SAP) and Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) for order processing, freight management, and logging inventory transactions.

\n

·        Perform root cause analysis on supply chain disruptions or significant inventory variances, implementing corrective actions to prevent recurrence.

\n

·        Analyze data and inventory turnover rates using Excel, SQL, and supply chain analytics tools to forecast demand, identify trends, and optimize stock levels.

\n

·        Monitor trade compliance and ensure all logistics and inventory control procedures align with company policies and international trade regulations.

\n

·        Collaborate with production planning, procurement, and warehouse staff to train teams on inventory best practices and evaluate control systems for continuous improvement.

\n

·        Maintain accurate documentation related to vendor contracts, 3PL provider relationships, and adjustments to inventory levels.

\n

Qualifications & Skills:

\n

·        Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management, Business Administration, Accounting, Finance, or a related field (Certified Internal Auditor or CPA designation is a plus).

\n

·        Strong proficiency with ERP platforms (specifically SAP), Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), and Transportation Management Systems (TMS).

\n

·        Advanced data analysis skills utilizing SQL, Excel, and dedicated supply chain analytics tools.

\n

·        Proven track record in an inventory auditing, logistics coordination, or similar role within the retail, manufacturing, or logistics industry.

\n

·        Deep understanding of international trade compliance, shipping regulations, e-commerce logistics, and inventory control principles.

\n

·        Familiarity with process improvement methodologies such as Lean or Six Sigma to drive cost reductions and workflow efficiency.

\n

·        Excellent cross-functional communication, negotiation, and time-management skills.

\n

·        Strong ethical standards with the ability to work independently to conduct detailed physical counts and maintain accurate compliance records.
