Power the heartbeat of industrial innovation. At Ingersoll Rand – Industrial Technologies & Services (ITS), we deliver engineered solutions supporting critical operations across air, gas, fluid, and material handling systems. We are seeking an Inventory Control Supervisor with proven experience leading direct reports in a discrete industrial manufacturing environment where engineered components, machined parts, and multi‐level assemblies are produced and managed.

This role owns inventory integrity across a complex materials landscape—far beyond high-volume consumables. This is a hands‑on leader‑role at the center of plant operations, responsible for driving inventory accuracy across raw materials, work‑in‑process, and finished assemblies.

• Analyze inventory KPIs including turns, shortages, and variances.
• Ensure compliance with internal controls, audit requirements, and EHS standards.
• Train, coach, and develop team members while fostering accountability and engagement.

• Associate’s degree
• 4+ years of experience in inventory control / materials management in a manufacturing setting
• 3+ years of experience with inventory control audits
• 2+ years’ experience supervising and leading team members who are direct reports
• 2+ years' demonstrated experience working in ERP software such as SAP,…
