Job Description

Key Responsibilities

Own perpetual inventory records in ERP; maintain system-to-physical accuracy of ≥99% for A-class, high-value and long-lead components, and ≥98% overall.
Design and execute a cycle-count programme — weekly and monthly for A-class, B-class and C-class components — and lead periodic wall-to-wall physical stock takes.
Investigate every variance to documented root cause; drive corrective and preventive action rather than adjustment entries.
Own bin location mapping, part-number and labelling standards, barcode/QR implementation and store layout optimisation.
Enforce FIFO, LIFO and FEFO discipline across all material categories.
Manage MSL (Moisture Sensitive Level) components, including dry cabinet storage, humidity indicator card checks, floor-life tracking and bake process control per J-STD-033.
Control shelf-life materials — solder paste, flux, adhesives, conformal coating and epoxies — including cold-storage discipline, thaw logs and expiry alerts.
Maintain reel, tray, tube and stick segregation; manage partial reel reconciliation, X-ray counting and reel splicing records.
Enforce ESD-safe handling and storage across stores and staging areas in line with IEC 61340-5-1 / ANSI-ESD S20.20.
Maintain traceability at lot and date-code level to satisfy customer and regulatory recall requirements.
Ensure on-time, accurate kitting against SMT, through-hole and box-build schedules; drive kit readiness reviews ahead of each build.
Prevent line stoppages through daily shortage tracking, expedite escalation and shortage-risk visibility to Planning and Purchase.
Manage WIP inventory, shop-floor issue and return, excess reconciliation on job closure, and rejection, rework and quarantine stock.
Reconcile BOM-based standard consumption against actual issue; monitor, report and reduce attrition, setup loss and scrap at component level.
Manage finished-goods inventory, packing material stock and dispatch readiness.
Administer customer free-issue and consigned material under separate accounting, with periodic reconciliation statements issued to the customer.
Manage supplier consignment stock, VMI arrangements and associated consumption reporting.
Handle rejection returns to suppliers, debit note coordination and replacement tracking with Purchase and Quality.
Drive ERP data integrity, including item master hygiene, UOM discipline, reorder levels, safety stock parameters and BOM accuracy.
Support ERP / WMS implementation, enhancement and barcode scanning rollout; act as the materials-side process owner.
Publish periodic MIS covering inventory turns, days-on-hand, stock value, ageing trend, fill rate, kit readiness and shortage analysis.
Ensure compliance with ISO 9001 — and IATF 16949 where applicable — together with customer-specific quality requirements.
Run structured FSN (Fast–Slow–Non-moving), ABC value and VED criticality analyses on a defined monthly cadence.
Maintain ageing buckets — 0–30 / 31–90 / 91–180 / 181–365 / 365+ days — by part, customer programme and value; publish a monthly Inventory Health Dashboard to management.
Classify, tag and physically segregate slow-moving, non-moving and dead stock so it does not distort available-to-promise or kitting logic.
Establish and maintain the Excess & Obsolete (E&O) provisioning schedule.
Perform root-cause analysis on every dead-stock accumulation, including ECN or design change, EOL and NRND components, supplier MOQ over-buy, cancelled or deferred customer schedules, forecast error, over-ordering against attrition, and qualification failures.
Support internal, statutory, customer and stock audits with complete documentation.
Author and maintain SOPs and work instructions for every store and inventory process; train the team against them.
Represent Inventory in daily production meetings, weekly S&OP reviews and monthly management reviews.
