What will you do?

How will you do it?
Plan and oversee inventory counts:
- Set count frequencies and priorities based on inventory value, turnover, criticality, and discrepancy history. Assign work and coordinate coverage across shifts.
- Review the Inventory Analyst’s work and provide feedback. The analyst prepares daily count lists, performs or supports assigned counts, records results, and investigates discrepancies.
- Coordinate training and physical inventories with Warehouse, Production, and Finance. Verify compliance with safety and counting procedures, including controls over stock movements during counts.
Validate discrepancies and track performance:
- Review reconciliations and evidence prepared by the analyst, request recounts when needed, and route adjustments according to the authorization matrix. Verify segregation of duties for counting, posting, and approval, and retain evidence for Finance and Audit.
- Use the analyst’s reports to present on-time completion of scheduled counts, the share of counted records matching SAP within tolerance, and the total absolute value of confirmed differences. Track open discrepancies by age and the share of corrective actions closed on time.
- Review daily exceptions such as negative stock and unprocessed transactions. Prioritize follow-up and escalate significant discrepancies or overdue items
Lead corrective actions:
- Lead root cause analysis for significant or recurring discrepancies. Agree on owners and due dates with the responsible team, then verify closure and effectiveness. Have the analyst maintain the action log and supporting evidence.
