Summary\ The Inventory Analyst plays a critical role in ensuring accurate, efficient, and well controlled inventory management across multiple warehouses and technician-assigned service vehicles. The Inventory Analyst supports cycle counts, manages obsolete/slow moving material processes, and develops inventory control policies and procedures that improve consistency, reduce shrinkage, and support field operations.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities:

Inventory Accuracy & Data Management

Perform high-volume, detailed data entry for all inventory

transactions, including receiving, transfers, adjustments, returns, and material usage.

Maintain accurate on-hand quantities and inventory valuation across

warehouses and technician service vehicles.

Utilize the Jonas Construction ERP system to track and validate all

material movement; ensure entries are complete, timely, and properly documented.

Review daily reports to confirm materials issued to jobs and service

work orders are correctly charged and costed.

Identify and correct errors in part numbers, descriptions, units of

measure, and pricing.

Support the setup of new items, vendor catalog maintenance, and

pricing updates in the ERP.

Work closely with accounting to reconcile inventory valuations to

the general ledger and resolve discrepancies promptly.

Cycle Count & Audit Support

Coordinate and schedule cycle counts for all warehouse locations and technician truck inventories.

Prepare count sheets, pre-count documentation, and inventory lists; provide guidance to counters on procedures.

Monitor cycle count execution to ensure accuracy and compliance with company policies.

Investigate count variances by reviewing transaction histories, material movement, job costing activity, and procedural gaps.

Work collaboratively with warehouse staff, managers, and field technicians to resolve discrepancies and prevent recurrence.

Summarize and present cycle count results, including detailed variance analysis and recommendations for corrective action.

Support internal and external audits with required inventory documentation, reconciliation reports, and policy evidence.

Obsolete & Slow-Moving Inventory Tracking

Maintain an ongoing process for identifying obsolete, surplus, or

slow-moving materials across warehouses and vehicles.

Analyze usage trends, historical consumption data, vendor lead

times, and inventory aging to identify potential write-downs.

Collaborate with procurement, warehouse supervisors, and service

management to determine material status and disposition strategies.

Develop and distribute regular reports highlighting aging inventory,

no-movement items, and at-risk categories (HVAC, plumbing, electrical).

Track the financial impact of obsolete inventory and support

leadership in forecasting and budgeting related to inventory reserves.

Recommend actions to reduce carrying costs, free up space, and

maintain a clean, efficient inventory profile.

Process Development & Continuous Improvement

Formalize, document, and standardize inventory control processes for

receiving, stocking, cycle counting, returns, transfers, and truck replenishment.

Develop inventory policies and procedures that apply to both

warehouses and technician trucks to ensure consistency and reduce shrinkage.

Establish guidelines for technician truck stock levels,

replenishment frequency, and handling of unused or returned materials.

Analyze current workflows to identify inefficiencies, high-error

points, and opportunities for process automation or improvement.

Assist in training warehouse staff, technicians, and office

personnel on inventory procedures and ERP usage.

Participate in cross-functional meetings to align inventory

practices with purchasing, accounting, project management, and service teams.

Support implementation of new tools, technologies, or system

enhancements that improve inventory accuracy and operational efficiency.

Reporting & Analysis

Generate regular and ad hoc inventory reports including valuation, usage, item movement, cycle count results, and KPI summaries.

Monitor and analyze key metrics such as inventory accuracy, shrinkage levels, inventory turnover, and cycle count performance.

Create dashboards, charts, and trend analyses to communicate inventory health and support decision-making.

Provide insights to leadership regarding material consumption patterns to help improve purchasing, stock levels, and operational planning.

Assist with month-end and year-end processes, ensuring all adjustments, reconciliations, and valuations are accurate and completed on time.

Offer data-driven recommendations to improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and support profitability.
