Job Description:
Inventory Control Associate
Location: Groveport, Ohio (Onsite)
Role Overview
The Inventory Control Associate maintains inventory accuracy across a high-volume IT asset disposition (ITAD) and enterprise hardware environment. This role performs daily cycle counts of serialized and non-serialized assets, investigates and reconciles discrepancies in the WMS/ERP, and supports chain-of-custody and compliance documentation requirements. Accuracy directly protects client data security commitments, resale value, and audit readiness.
Key Responsibilities
- Perform daily and weekly cycle counts of assigned bin locations, racks, and staging areas; verify part numbers, serial numbers, quantities, and unit of measure.
- Reconcile physical counts against system records; research variances by tracing receiving, put-away, testing, and shipping transactions.
- Document count results, root causes, and corrective actions; escalate high-impact variances and any potential loss or missing data-bearing device immediately to the supervisor.
- Maintain serialized asset tracking and chain-of-custody accuracy for data-bearing assets moving through receiving, testing, data erasure, and shipping.
- Process inventory adjustments, bin transfers, and location corrections in the WMS/ERP per approval policy, maintaining a clean audit trail.
- Operate RF scanners and handheld devices for counts, transfers, and location validation; troubleshoot basic scan and label issues.
- Label, re-label, and organize bin locations to support accurate and repeatable counting.
- Partner with receiving, testing, production control, and shipping teams to resolve discrepancies at the source and reduce repeat errors.
- Support full physical inventories, internal audits, and client or third-party audit preparation.
- Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area; follow all safety and security protocols.
Required Qualifications
- High school diploma or GED.
- 1+ year of inventory control, cycle counting, receiving, or warehouse experience.
- Working knowledge of a WMS or ERP system (SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, or similar) and RF/barcode scanning.
- Basic Excel and data entry proficiency.
- Strong attention to detail, basic math, and the ability to stay accurate through repetitive tasks.
- Ability to work independently and communicate variances clearly to a supervisor.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in ITAD, electronics, data center hardware, or a serialized-asset environment.
- Forklift, order picker, or pallet jack certification.
- Experience supporting audits or root-cause analysis on inventory variances.
Physical Requirements
- Ability to stand, walk, bend, squat, and reach for extended periods on a warehouse floor.
- Ability to lift up to 50 lbs.
- Ability to work in varying warehouse temperatures.
- Flexibility to support occasional evening, weekend, or peak-volume schedules.
