• Track inventory across storage locations and help align physical stock with system records to support operational accuracy.
• Work with warehouse and production staff to maintain proper material staging, ensure required items are available, and support accurate backflushing and consumption reporting.
• Assist with cycle counts and other inventory control activities aimed at improving record accuracy and reducing variances.
• Analyze production-related variances and help determine root causes tied to materials, scrap, labour, or master data issues.
• Partner with supervisors, planners, quality, maintenance, and finance to resolve reporting issues and ensure production information supports month-end processing.
• Provide day-to-day support to shop floor personnel on transaction-related questions and help maintain consistent reporting practices.
• High school diploma is required; post-secondary education in inventory management or a related field is considered an asset.
• 2 to 5 years of experience in a manufacturing setting, preferably within packaging or another high-volume production environment.
• Background in production reporting, inventory coordination, materials control, or a similar operational support function.
• Experience working with ERP platforms, including SAP or comparable systems, with knowledge of production and inventory processes.
• Understanding of bills of materials, routings, work centres, production versions, and inventory transactions.
• Intermediate Microsoft Excel skills, including the ability to organize data, validate information, and work with pivot tables.
