Warehouse Operations Coordinator

The Warehouse Operations Coordinator is accountable for continuity of warehouse workflow, receiving and fulfillment processes, logistics, scheduled Carthage Supply deliveries, warehouse operational systems, and time-sensitive backup support needed to maintain customer order fulfillment and operations.

The role coordinates daily priorities and communicates operational changes without direct supervisory authority. It owns warehouse processes and workflow while coordinating closely with Inventory, warehouse execution roles, Accounting, IT/DEV, LAB, Health Team, vendors, carriers, drivers, and other partners.

• Maintain visibility to inventory, orders, shipments, freight activity, resource needs, and competing priorities; identify bottlenecks and coordinate resolution.
• Maintain standard receiving, put-away, picking, packing, shipping, order-completion, and fulfillment processes.
• Support urgent inventory-discrepancy resolution and authorized emergency inventory adjustments when needed to maintain operations.
• Ensure processes support lot/serial, expiration, FEFO, labeling, product validation, barcode receiving, automated finalization, carrier/tracking, invoicing, and prescription-label workflows.
• Escalate significant priority conflicts, resource constraints, or operational concerns to the Director of Supply.

• Coordinate LTL, common-carrier, custom-driver, UPS, Spee-Dee, and other approved freight or delivery methods from planning through delivery.
• Maintain freight calendars, client shipping-method information, scheduled deliveries, carrier pickups, shipment timing, and required documentation.
• Obtain and compare freight rates; select carriers based on cost, service, timing, and established requirements.
• Coordinate with warehouse employees to prepare freight, track shipments, resolve delays, and communicate delivery issues to affected parties.
• Manage lost or damaged LTL freight claims and coordinate related inventory adjustments or Accounting reimbursement follow-up.
• Book routine freight within the established $500 approval threshold; obtain Director of Supply approval for higher-cost, unusual, or sensitive freight.

• Maintain and communicate monthly farm order, submission-deadline, AHI delivery, and Carthage Supply pallet-delivery schedules.
• Communicate expected shipment contents, product availability, backorders, delivery changes, and items moved between shipments.
• Routinely verify farm calendars for accuracy and ensure farms and internal employees have clear delivery information.
• Coordinate delivery plans with the AHI delivery coordinator and adjust for health, biosecurity, truck-wash, sequencing, product availability, and operational requirements.

• Provide second-level backup for Customer Service order processing after the Procurement Analyst.
• Back up semen-shipment processing, urgent inventory discrepancies, emergency inventory adjustments, and internal-use inventory transactions.
• Support receiving, fulfillment, packing, and shipping during staffing shortages or unusual workload.
• Provide emergency continuity support for detailed AHI delivery coordination when the owner and primary backup are unavailable.
