Support onboarding and implementation of new Distribution customers and services.

Inventory Control & Quality

Maintain a strong culture of inventory accuracy and transactional discipline.
Ensure physical material movement aligns with system transactions.
Partner with Inventory Control on cycle counts, inventory reconciliations, audits, and root-cause investigation.
Monitor inventory discrepancies and establish corrective and preventive actions where appropriate.
Reinforce customer-specific handling, serialization, lot control, RMA, high-value product, or other special requirements.
Ensure documentation and operational records are maintained accurately.
