Inventory Control Specialist (GFS)

About the Role
As an Inventory Control Specialist in our Logistics Center, you'll be the driving force behind inventory accuracy, data integrity, and process excellence. You'll use our Warehouse Management System (WMS) and material-handling equipment to maintain real-time stock fidelity, mentor associates, and champion continuous improvement initiatives that directly support customer satisfaction and operational efficiency.

What You'll Do
* Inventory Accuracy & Cycle Counts
- Execute scheduled and ad-hoc cycle counts, pick-path verifications, "bad-box" investigations, and bin audits to ensure real-time data reliability.
- Investigate and resolve inventory discrepancies, bin-location variances, and lost/found bin issues with root-cause analysis and corrective actions.

* Order & Receipt Management
- Research, reconcile, and process exception orders, receipts, and returns in the WMS, databases, and reporting tools.
- Maintain pick-exception logs and report on order-fulfillment performance.

* Data Analysis & Reporting
- Collect and analyze key performance indicators (KPIs)-including inventory shrink, picking accuracy, and cycle-count variance.
- Develop actionable reports and dashboards to highlight trends, drive process improvements, and mitigate risk.

* Training, Coaching & Collaboration
- Mentor new and existing team members on WMS best practices, inventory controls, and safety procedures.
- Partner with Operations, Quality Assurance, IT, and Supply Chain teams to investigate complex issues and implement scalable solutions.

* Continuous Improvement
- Identify opportunities for process optimization, system enhancements, and cost reduction.
- Lead or support Kaizen events, Lean initiatives, and cross-functional projects.

* General Duties
- Adhere to all safety protocols, attendance standards, and quality benchmarks.
- Perform additional tasks and special projects as assigned by management.

Who We're Looking For
* Minimum of 2 years' experience in a transaction-intensive warehouse or distribution center environment, using WMS/inventory-management systems.
* Proficient operating material-handling equipment (e.g., forklifts, pallet jacks, RF scanners) and common office tools (Excel, Word, databases).
* Strong analytical mindset: able to sort numerical data, recognize trends, and recommend corrective actions.
* Demonstrated leadership and coaching skills; comfortable training peers and guiding process improvements.
* Excellent written and verbal communication; able to escalate issues and collaborate at all organizational levels.
* Detail-oriented with a commitment to accuracy, confidentiality, and data integrity.
* Able to lift and transport up to 50 lbs., stand or remain stationary for extended periods, and adapt to changing workloads.
* High school diploma or equivalent required; associate's degree or relevant certification (e.g., CPIM, Six Sigma) preferred.

Why You'll Love Working Here
* Career Growth: Structured development plans, tuition reimbursement, and clear pathways to supervisory and management roles.
* Culture & Inclusion: Employee resource groups, mentorship programs, and a commitment to diversity.
* Comprehensive Benefits: Competitive pay, health/dental/vision plans, 401(k) match, paid time off, and wellness initiatives.
* Innovative Environment: Work with industry-leading technologies and collaborative teams that value your ideas.
