Defense Manufacturing Materials Coordinator

Guard the gate: Verify every inbound material against documentation, confirm counts and condition, and ensure items are correctly identified and labeled for traceability. Protect the inventory: Store to specification-environmental controls, handling rules, and segregation as required-so parts remain audit-ready. Make it visible: Maintain complete, accurate records (lot/serial, packing lists, bills of lading, inventory reports) to AS9100 requirements. Close the loop: Conduct counts and audits, reconcile discrepancies, and collaborate on corrective actions. Keep teams moving: Coordinate with Procurement, Production, and Quality on shortages, priorities, and delivery schedules.
