Ensure raw materials meet specifications required for cutting, welding, fabrication, finishing, and assembly processes.
Prevent line stoppages caused by material shortages or inventory inaccuracies.
Support new product launches, engineering changes, and project-based material requirements.

Process Improvement & Reporting

Drive continuous improvement initiatives focused on procurement efficiency, inventory accuracy, and waste reduction.
Implement Lean principles, including just-in-time inventory strategies where appropriate.
Improve processes through better system utilization, automation, and workflow standardization.
Prepare and present KPI reporting related to inventory turns, stock accuracy, supplier performance, material costs, shortages, and risk exposure.
Provide data-driven recommendations to leadership to improve profitability and operational efficiency.

Team Leadership

Lead and develop inventory, warehouse, and materials personnel.
