- Analytical and curious by nature – you enjoy investigating discrepancies and digging into data until you find the root cause
- Highly organized and task-oriented with superior time management skills and the ability to manage your own workload without close supervision
- Strong attention to detail – accuracy in data entry, cycle counts, and pricing is critical in this role
- Proficiency with computers and programs including Outlook, Excel, and Eagle Software (or similar inventory management systems)
