- Assist with inventory investigations, discrepancy resolution, cycle counts, and damaged goods tracking.
- Contribute to planning and execution of inventory transitions, layout updates, staffing adjustments, and process improvements.
- Monitor operational performance, flag risks early, and maintain alignment under pressure.

- Clear written and verbal communication.
- High level of emotional intelligence and self‑awareness.
- Comfort operating within structure and evolving processes.
- Strong problem‑solving skills with a bias toward sustainability.

- Experience developing supervisors or leads.
- Familiarity with inventory systems and operational metrics.
- Comfort learning industry‑specific knowledge (yarn, dye lots, product handling).
