What is this role?
The Inventory Analyst plays a critical role in keeping Cirkul's operations running smoothly. This is an entry-level to early-career role designed for someone who loves digging into data, spotting issues before they become problems, and isn't afraid to get out from behind a desk and onto the warehouse floor.
You'll monitor inventory accuracy, analyze trends, and support day-to-day inventory decisions across our operations. This role partners closely with Operations, Supply Chain, and Warehouse teams to ensure we have the right product, in the right place, at the right time.
This is a great role for someone who wants to build a strong foundation in operations and analytics in a fast-growing CPG environment.
