As part of the Warehouse Team, you will conduct finished goods and raw material counts to ensure storage locations are accurate.

As you grow in the role, you will take part in root cause analysis and be empowered to support the implementation of continuous improvement projects. You are willing to support the business wherever you are needed.

You are the go-to person to investigate, verify, and resolve on the floor inventory discrepancies. You enjoy working collaboratively with your fellow Team Members and take great pride in the effective inventory practices you have deployed within our entire flavor factory and warehouse.
SUCCESS FACTORS (12-18 MONTHS):
- Inventory Discrepancy Blood Hound: Warehouse inventory is moving FAST! You will need to understand how we move items throughout the warehouse physically and systematically utilizing the existing warehouse operating system. Understanding the concept of oldest inventory ships out first; your cornerstone philosophy. To keep the “freshest” warehouse possible, you will monitor and identify short shelf life, expired, returns, and slow-moving inventory to reduce product loss. You will participate in mock recalls and product withdrawals, with the ability to systematically follow identified product lot codes and transactions. To monitor the performance of these activities, you will learn to track and report inventory metrics.
- Crazy for Counting: The more we count and train the better we get. Therefore, you will maintain the cycle count schedule that monitors the health of lot/item/location integrity and prioritize the issues causing inventory discrepancies. You will identify and investigate inventory discrepancies and perform root cause analysis. You will participate in order audits to confirm 100% accuracy and ensure our customers get what they want when they want it! You will play a vital role in physical inventory preparation via the cycle count program and the accurate execution of all processes.
- 6S/Safety/Food Safety: The warehouse is OUR house. As a Team Member, you help ensure compliance with OSHA requirements, internal safety regulations and maintain a safe, clean work environment. You live by the fundamentals of 6S and how it drives workplace organization and daily readiness. You will be part of a team that owns a zone of responsibility as well as the completion of a corresponding daily checklist. By playing your part, you will become proficient in the company’s GDP and Food Safety policies to ensure we remain consistent with the safety directives of the company. Not only do you have a safety-first mindset, but you are also comfortable in keeping your fellow Team Members safe as well. All safety hazards are reported and or fixed immediately.
