The Opportunity: What You’ll Do

As the Inventory & Production Planning Manager , you are the operational engine of DenLine. You will sit at the crossroads of supply chain management, data analysis, and internal communication.

In this role, you manage product demand forecasting and fabric sourcing while guiding production at our dedicated third-party manufacturing plant in the Dominican Republic.

• Material & Fabric Sourcing: Order technical fabrics and accessories, manage supplier relationships, and inspect/approve incoming shipments against purchase orders.
• Cross-Functional Communication: Serve as the bridge between Sales (customer demand) and Production (plant capacity), translating customer orders into clear plant priorities.

2. Product Costing & Accounting Records

• Cost Tracking: Maintain precise product cost records and compile monthly Inventory Cost Reports for executive management.
• Inventory Accounting: Track stock movement, review shipping tickets posted by the stockroom team, and reconcile physical inventory against sales data.
