The posting

Job Summary The Distribution Order Allocation Clerk is responsible for matching available warehouse inventory against open customer orders to ensure accurate, timely, and efficient product distribution. This role acts as a critical link between customer service, inventory control, and the physical warehouse floor. By utilizing Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software, you will strategically assign (allocate) inventory, prioritize urgent shipments, resolve stock discrepancies, and release optimized picking waves to the warehouse processing team.

Core Responsibilities

Order Allocation: Analyze open sales orders and systematically allocate available

inventory based on customer priority, delivery dates, shipping methods, and product availability.

Wave Planning & Release: Group allocated orders into efficient fulfillment waves or batches, releasing them to the warehouse floor to maximize picker productivity.

Inventory Problem Solving: Identify and resolve inventory shortfalls, allocation errors, or trapped inventory by collaborating closely with the Inventory Control team.

Order Monitoring & Prioritization: Track high-priority accounts, expedited shipments and backorders to ensure strict adherence to customer Service Level Agreements (SLAs).

Cross-Functional Communication: Coordinate daily with Customer Service regarding order delays, Shortages, or substitutions, and with Warehouse Supervisors regarding daily volume and picking constraints.

System Maintenance: Maintain data integrity within the WMS/ERP systems, ensuring order statuses, inventory locations, and allocation rules are accurate.

Required Skills & Qualifications

Technical Proficiency: Hands-on experience with Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) alongside strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel.

Experience with Manhattan Scale WMS is a plus.

Analytical Skills: Strong ability to analyze large sets of data, identify inventory

discrepancies, and make logical sequencing decisions under tight deadlines.

Attention to Detail: Extreme precision when managing SKU numbers, lot numbers, expiration dates, and complex customer routing guidelines.

Problem Solving: A proven track record of troubleshooting systematic errors and

finding creative ways to fulfill orders despite stock limitations.

Communication: Clear verbal and written communication skills to effectively bridge the gap between office staff and floor personnel.

Education & Experience

High school diploma or equivalent required; an Associate’s degree in Supply Chain, Logistics, or Business is a plus.

Minimum of 1–2 years of experience in a warehouse, distribution, or logistics

environment, specifically dealing with order processing or inventory control.

Physical Requirements & Work Environment

Primarily an office or workstation-based role located within a fast-paced, high-volume distribution center environment.

Must be comfortable sitting or standing at a computer terminal for extended periods.

Occasional walking onto the warehouse floor may be required.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
