The role ensures material availability, inventory accuracy, efficient warehouse operations, and disciplined execution in support of production schedules and customer delivery commitments.

As a Site Warehouse Manager you will:

Material Flow & Production Support

  • Own end-to-end material flow including receiving, storage, picking, kitting, line feeding, staging, packing, and shipment readiness.
  • Ensure continuous material availability at point of use and prevent internal logistics constraints from impacting production.
  • Translate production priorities and schedule changes into effective warehouse execution.
  • Proactively identify and resolve material shortages, delays, and flow constraints affecting production.

Warehouse & Inventory Control

  • Manage warehouse operations, storage, layout, material organization, dock activities, and space utilization.
  • Own inventory accuracy and ensure alignment between physical inventory and ERP/WMS records.
  • Establish and execute a robust cycle count program based on inventory risk, value, and transaction activity.
  • Ensure cycle count completion, variance investigation, reconciliation, and timely corrective actions.
  • Drive transaction discipline across receiving, material movements, transfers, adjustments, and shipments.
  • Identify and eliminate root causes of inventory discrepancies, material losses, and recurring system-to-physical variances.

Shipping & Logistics Execution

  • Ensure finished goods are complete, accurately packed, staged, and ready for shipment according to production and customer requirements.
  • Coordinate dock execution and shipment priorities with Logistics & Transportation.
  • Ensure alignment between production completion and shipment readiness.

Operational Excellence & Performance

  • Drive continuous improvement using Lean principles, standard work, 5S, visual management, and structured problem solving.
  • Improve material handling, travel distance, warehouse utilization, productivity, and overall material flow.
  • Monitor and improve key warehouse KPIs, including inventory accuracy, cycle count performance, material availability, picking accuracy, warehouse productivity, and on-time shipment readiness

Leadership & Safety

  • Lead and develop warehouse supervisors, leads, material handlers, inventory, and shipping/receiving personnel.
  • Ensure appropriate staffing and capabilities aligned with production requirements across shifts.
  • Drive accountability, standardization, execution discipline, and adherence to EHS and safety requirements.

We are looking for someone who:

  • Bachelor’s degree in supply chain, Logistics, Operations, Engineering, or related field, or equivalent relevant experience.
  • 8+ years of warehouse, materials, or internal logistics experience in a manufacturing environment, including people leadership responsibilities.
  • Strong knowledge of warehouse operations, inventory control, cycle counting, material flow, and shipping/receiving.
  • Experience with ERP/WMS systems, inventory transaction discipline, and performance/KPI management.
  • Strong leadership, analytical, problem-solving, and continuous improvement skills, with working knowledge of Lean principles.

Ideally you will also have:

  • Experience working in engineering-to-order and/or high-mix low-volume manufacturing environments
  • Experience implementing or improving warehouse layout, material flow, or point-of-use delivery systems.
  • Lean Six Sigma Green Belt certification or equivalent continuous improvement experience applied to logistics processes

What we offer you:

Typical pay is $96,555 – $128,577 annually.
