  • At least one relevant certification, such as APICS CPIM, CSCP or CLTD.
  • Ability to work on-site in Boonton, New Jersey, with a realistic commuting plan.

NICE TO HAVE

  • JD Edwards experience; comparable ERP experience such as SAP or NetSuite is also considered.
  • Previous supervisory or management experience.
  • Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain, Operations, Business, Engineering or a related field.
