Inventory Manager

Welcome to MK Distro! MK Distro is a leading distributor of smoke, vape, tobacco, and hemp products to retail stores and wholesale customers, and a B2B cash-and-carry supplier serving walk-in business customers. Known for carrying popular, in-demand items as well as unique products, we help stores stand out with inventory that adds a competitive edge. We are a lean, fast-moving operation investing heavily in getting our systems and processes right — and inventory accuracy is at the heart of that. This is a chance to own a function that directly drives how well the whole business runs. Role The Inventory Manager owns inventory accuracy, flow, and strategy across the entire warehouse. You\'ll set the standards the inventory team works to — building the cycle-count program, defining receiving and pick/pack accuracy targets, and using data in Zoho to keep stock lean but sellable. You\'ll lead the Inventory Lead, Specialist, and associates, and you\'ll be ownership\'s go-to for anything inventory. This is a build-and-own role: you\'re setting up the function correctly, not inheriting a finished one.
