Inventory Coordinator

Are you someone who enjoys staying organized, solving problems, and keeping production moving? We're looking for an Inventory Coordinator to play a critical role in supporting production, purchasing, and shipping operations. This is a hands-on opportunity where you'll have real ownership of the inventory process while working in a collaborative, team-oriented environment.

What You'll Do

• Coordinate materials for production by picking, staging, and organizing parts for assembly jobs.
• Set up job bins and transport materials throughout the production floor using a pallet jack (forklift experience is a plus).
• Track inventory, maintain accurate records, perform cycle counts, and replenish stock.
• Ensure customer-supplied and purchased components are properly labeled and accounted for.
• Work closely with purchasing, production, shipping, and customer service to prevent material shortages and keep projects on schedule.
• Participate in weekly production meetings and help identify opportunities to improve inventory accuracy and efficiency.

What We're Looking For

• 3–5 years of inventory, stockroom, material handling, or manufacturing experience in a hands-on production environment.
• Experience working with work orders, Bills of Materials (BOMs), and assembly or manufacturing job orders.
• Comfortable operating a pallet jack and regularly lifting up to 40 lbs.
• Strong computer skills, including Microsoft Outlook, Excel, and ERP systems.
• A proactive, self-motivated professional who can prioritize work independently, communicate across departments, and solve problems without constant direction.

Preferred Qualifications

• Forklift experience.
• Experience with cycle counts, inventory audits, and stock replenishment.
• Familiarity with NetSuite, Monday.com, or other ERP/production planning systems.
• Experience supporting project-based manufacturing or customer-supplied inventory.

Schedule

• Monday-Friday
• 7:30 AM-4:00 PM
• Occasional flexibility for early start or late finish as needed
• Minimal overtime (typically 0-5 hours per week)

Why Join?

• Established and growing manufacturer serving a wide range of industries.
• Modern, clean, and well-organized production facility.
• Supportive, family-oriented culture where employees are empowered to take ownership and make an impact.
• Cross-functional role with visibility across purchasing, production, shipping, and customer service.
• Comprehensive benefits package.
• Competitive Salary: $50,000–$65,000
