Inventory Representative

About Shepherd Electric Supply

Since 1892, Shepherd Electric Supply has been the first call when complex, time‑critical electrical challenges need to be solved, and reliability truly matters. We move materials accurately and on time, so contractors stay on schedule, projects stay on track, and customers never have to wonder if we will come through.

Inventory accuracy is the foundation of everything Shepherd promises to customers. When a job site runs out of material, every minute counts. If our counts are off, our people cannot confirm availability, our pickers waste time searching, and our customers lose confidence in us. The Inventory Representative ensures what Eclipse says is on the shelf actually is, enabling the warehouse team to pick with confidence, the counter staff to quote with certainty, and customers to place orders knowing they will ship the same day.
