Inventory Control Lead
About the role
Grüns is growing fast, and inventory accuracy now decides whether orders ship on time and in full. Today, inventory at our Roanoke facility runs mostly through one person. We’re hiring its first dedicated owner, who will make the numbers right, keep them right, and build the system that holds it all together.
This role is on-site at our Roanoke, TX facility, working alongside the warehouse team every day.
Shift Schedule: Monday-Friday, 7:00am-3:30pm
In this role, you will:
Own inventory accuracy at our Roanoke facility from end to end
Run the daily cycle count program, investigating every variance to root cause and making sure the fix is reflected in the system
Lead two full physical inventory counts a year, on schedule
Monitor stock levels and flag shortages, overstock, damaged product, and expiring product before they affect a shipment
Write the SOPs we don’t have yet: storage, counting, variance investigation, and adjustments
Report inventory accuracy on a regular cadence, with a target of 98% or higher, along with a recurring view of slow-moving, overstocked, and expiring inventory
Take day-to-day inventory management off our Warehouse Manager’s plate and drive process improvements that cut errors and add efficiency
We’re looking for someone who:
Has 3+ years in inventory control, cycle counting, or warehouse operations, ideally in food or supplements
Has built or improved a cycle count or accuracy process and can show the measurable result
Has hands-on WMS/ERP experience (Fulfil.io is a plus) and is fluent with barcode scanners
Is proficient in Excel or Google Sheets and can run variance and root-cause analysis
Has written or improved SOPs
Holds a forklift certification, or is willing and able to get one after hiring
Bonus: lot and expiration tracking (FIFO/FEFO), prior lead or trainer experience, and bilingual English/Spanish
Approach to the role:
Treats accuracy as non-negotiable
Finds out why a count is off instead of just correcting it
Documents the work so anyone can repeat it
Flags problems early, before they hit a shipment
Works shoulder to shoulder with the warehouse team and earns their trust
Takes extreme ownership and doesn’t need to be managed
Compensation & Benefits:
At Grüns, we’re committed to providing a competitive total compensation package, grounded in market data that considers our size, stage, industry, and location. For this role, the base pay is $21/hour, paired with a comprehensive benefits package designed to support the well-being and growth of our team.
