• Conduct daily review of DC wide inventory health across KPI and KPA indicators, identifying site-level trends, cross-DC patterns, and emerging risk areas requiring strategic intervention.
• Review large adjustments exceeding $1,000 daily, providing oversight on RCA quality and ensuring DC IC Managers are driving corrective action.
• Review previous adjustments for coding accuracy and cycle count progress, holding team reporting standards.
• Monitor regional UDR, VFR, Donation, Salvage, and Liquidation pipelines daily, identifying disposition backlogs and driving resolution through DC IC Manager accountability.
• Deliver monthly inventory health recaps to the Director of Inventory Management, presenting multi-site trend analysis, performance against KPI targets, and forward-looking recommendations.
• Own the development and continuous improvement of IC processes and strategies across the DC, building scalable, data-driven solutions that address root cause rather than surface-level symptoms.
• Serve as the process champion for all IC SOPs, ensuring consistent adoption, holding team accountable to adherence, and evolving standards as the operation changes.
• Monitor KPI and KPA performance, driving resolution on underperforming sites through structured improvement planning and direct support as needed.
• Scope and implement solutions to regional operational opportunities collaboratively with DC IC Managers, developing their strategic thinking alongside their execution capability.
• Drive process improvement initiatives and enterprise IC "Big Rock" projects from scoping through implementation, presenting progress and impact to Executive leadership with full accountability for outcomes.
• Serve as the primary intermediary between DC-level IC operations and corporate leadership, translating regional inventory performance into clear, data-backed narratives that drive executive-level decision making.
• Represent the regional IC function with authority and executive presence in corporate-driven meetings and ad hoc site leadership engagements.
• Lead cross-functional IC initiatives involving corporate and DC partners, managing stakeholder alignment and driving initiatives to measurable completion.
• Act as the direct mentor for DC IC associates within the region, supporting their development through structured IDPs, weekly connects, and bi-monthly career planning with the Director of Inventory Management.
• Build cross-functional relationships with DC IC leadership and senior site leaders across the region, establishing the trust and credibility required to influence outcomes without direct authority.

• Proven track record of building and implementing IC strategy at scale, including SOP development, process improvement, and enterprise initiative rollout with measurable outcomes.
• Prior people management experience required, with demonstrated ability to develop IC leaders and hold managers accountable to KPI performance across a distributed team.
• Proven ability to influence outcomes across organizational levels without positional authority, from DC operations to corporate senior leadership.
• Executive presentation skills required; this role regularly prepares and delivers data-backed inventory performance narratives to Director and Executive Director-level audiences.
• Proficiency in Power BI or equivalent data visualization tools required; deep WMS proficiency required; NTS experience strongly preferred.
• Demonstrated ability to identify cross-DC inventory patterns and build regional corrective strategies grounded in data rather than anecdote.

• Equally effective at a strategic and tactical altitude, credible in an executive briefing and on a DC floor walk.
• Track record of developing high-performing IC leaders who have progressed within the organization.
