    • You will help maintain a “nothing on the floor” policy.
    • You will be responsible for quarantining inventory that has not met our specifications, which will include completing multiple transactions without our ERP system to maintain inventory accuracy.
    • You will work with other team members to understand and continuously improve key performance metrics for the department.
    • You will participate in 5S planning, implementation, and review processes in order to keep your workstations clean and ready for the next incoming shipment.
