The posting

Inventory Control Coordinator Location: Vernon Hills, IL Pay Rate: $45,000 – $55,000 per year

Position Overview Inventory accuracy is the backbone of any distribution operation — and the person responsible for maintaining it is one of the most important contributors to the facility's daily success. A growing distribution operation in Vernon Hills, IL is seeking an experienced Inventory Control Coordinator to join a newly consolidated, high-volume facility and take ownership of the processes that keep inventory data accurate, reliable, and actionable. This is a role for someone who is detail-oriented by nature, comfortable working with data and systems, and confident taking initiative when discrepancies arise.

Key Responsibilities

  • Plan, coordinate, and execute daily and weekly cycle counts across all product categories and storage locations within the facility
  • Investigate and resolve inventory discrepancies identified through cycle counts, system audits, receiving variances, and fulfillment exceptions
  • Maintain real-time inventory accuracy by updating records in the warehouse management system and ensuring all product movements are captured correctly
  • Generate daily, weekly, and monthly inventory reports for facility management, highlighting variance trends, adjustment activity, and cycle count completion rates
  • Coordinate with the receiving team to ensure all inbound shipments are accurately processed, documented, and reflected in inventory within established time standards
  • Work closely with the fulfillment and shipping teams to identify and address inventory-related order exceptions before they impact customers
  • Conduct root cause analysis on recurring inventory variances and recommend process improvements to prevent future discrepancies
  • Support annual physical inventory counts and period-end reconciliation processes, coordinating across departments to ensure smooth execution
  • Ensure that all inventory movement documentation is accurate, complete, and filed in accordance with facility record-keeping standards
  • Communicate clearly and proactively with supervisors and management regarding inventory status, adjustment approvals, and outstanding discrepancies

Requirements

  • Minimum of 2 years of inventory control, cycle counting, or warehouse operations experience in a distribution, fulfillment, or manufacturing environment
  • Proficiency with warehouse management systems (WMS) — experience with data entry, inventory adjustments, and system-generated reporting required
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to identify variance trends and trace discrepancies to root cause
  • High proficiency in Microsoft Excel or comparable spreadsheet tools for tracking, reporting, and data analysis
  • Exceptional attention to detail with a demonstrated track record of maintaining inventory accuracy under volume pressure
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills for cross-functional coordination and management reporting
  • Ability to work independently and manage multiple concurrent tasks without loss of accuracy or urgency
  • Must be authorized to work in the United States

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in a related field is preferred
