Position Overview:

The Inventory Control Manager will join the Supply Chain Department , owning all inventory tracking, WIP (Work-In-Progress) material management, and real-time system accuracy across production operations.

You will be responsible for ensuring raw materials, WIP, and finished goods inventory records are accurate, reliable, and actionable — directly supporting production readiness, customer fulfillment, and financial reporting accuracy. This role is essential to maintaining operational stability as production volumes scale.

Responsibilities:

• Manage daily cycle counts of raw materials, WIP, and finished goods inventories across warehouse and production areas.
• Conduct weekly and monthly full inventory audits and reconcile variances against ERP system records.
• Track WIP materials through every production stage, ensuring materials are properly consumed and output correctly recorded.
• Maintain ERP inventory records in real-time, updating transactions for production usage, waste, movement, and completion.
• Analyze inventory discrepancies and implement corrective action plans to address root causes.
• Support inbound material staging and outbound finished goods staging coordination by maintaining accurate location tracking.
• Develop inventory reporting tools for internal use, including real-time visibility dashboards for inventory aging, stock levels, and inventory accuracy performance.
• Partner with Supply Chain and Manufacturing leadership to align physical and system inventory counts for production scheduling.
• Prepare for and participate in internal and external inventory audits and ensure full traceability is maintained.
• Assist with continuous improvement initiatives related to inventory handling, WIP staging, and material flow optimization.

Department: Supply Chain

Reporting To: Head of Supply Chain

Cross-Functional Collaboration: Manufacturing, Warehouse Operations, Finance

Qualifications:

• 3–5 years of experience in inventory management, warehouse control, or materials handling in manufacturing or production environments.
• Strong working knowledge of ERP systems and inventory management modules (NetSuite, SAP, or equivalent preferred).
• Proven ability to perform cycle counts, manage inventory reconciliations, and maintain system data integrity.
• Analytical skills to identify root causes of inventory variances and propose corrective actions.
• High attention to detail and organizational discipline.
• Familiarity with WIP material tracking and batch control in a manufacturing setting preferred.
• Background in food manufacturing, CPG production, or ingredient management strongly preferred.

Success in This Role Looks Like:

• Real-time inventory accuracy consistently exceeds 98%+ at all stages (raw material, WIP, and finished goods).
• WIP material movements are accurately captured and reflected in ERP records.
• Cycle counts, audits, and reconciliation activities are executed on schedule and with minimal adjustments.
• Internal stakeholders (Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Finance) have reliable inventory data for production planning and financial reporting.
• Inventory discrepancies are minimized through proactive controls, clear processes, and early identification of issues.

Our Culture and How We Work:

• We operate with urgency — inventory records are updated and corrected immediately, not in batches.
• We value ownership — the Inventory Control Lead fully owns the accuracy of all system and physical inventory.
• We require clarity — documentation, reporting, and communication must be precise and up-to-date.
• We collaborate across departments — ensuring inventory data supports the full operational and financial system.
