Job Description

ACT is seeking a proactive Inventory Controls Manager to own and lead the inventory control function in our manufacturing / charging-systems environment. This role will manage end-to-end inventory controls including receipts, cycle counts, audits, ERP system management, and cross-functional coordination. The ideal candidate is a self-starter, comfortable owning the process, working with multiple suppliers and internal stakeholders, and driving accuracy, reduction of variances, and process improvement. Travel will be light (occasional supplier or site visits) and familiarity with ERP systems-especially Microsoft Dynamics-is a significant plus.

Job Requirements

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage the full inventory control lifecycle : receipts, put-away, bin management, cycle counts, physical inventory audits, reconciliation of variances.
  • Own the ERP system module related to inventory control-ensure accurate item master, location setup, movement tracking, and reporting.
  • Develop, implement, and maintain standard operating procedures (SOPs) for inventory control processes, ensuring consistency and best practices.
  • Monitor inventory accuracy metrics (inventory variance, count accuracy, days of stock on hand, obsolete / slow-moving material), and drive continuous improvement.
  • Coordinate with procurement, production planning, operations, and warehouse teams to align material flows, forecasted demand, and inventory stocking levels.
  • Manage relationships with suppliers and internal stakeholders to ensure timely receipt of material, proper documentation, and resolution of discrepancies.
  • Lead and supervise any inventory control staff or teams (if applicable); train team members in cycle counting, audit protocols, and system usage.
  • Produce regular reporting and dashboards for leadership - highlighting inventory health, trends, risk areas, and improvement plans.
  • Occasionally travel (vendor visits, site audits) as needed to support inventory controls and supplier alignment.

Qualifications and Experience

  • 5+ years of experience in inventory control, materials management, or supply-chain operations in a manufacturing or technical environment.
  • Proven experience owning inventory control processes-receipts, cycle counting, audits, reconciling variances.
  • Strong ERP experience; familiarity with Microsoft Dynamics is a significant plus.
  • Excellent analytical skills, with ability to dive into data, identify root causes of inventory variances, and drive actionable improvements.
  • Self-starter mindset with strong organizational discipline, process ownership, and ability to work independently.
  • Strong communication skills-able to collaborate with cross-functional teams (procurement, operations, warehouse, suppliers).
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where material flow and inventory accuracy are critical to production performance.
  • Occasional light travel required.
