Regardless of the position one holds, each team member brings their talent and desire to positively impact the environment and lives of others in a refreshing, vibrant, and inclusive culture.

BETA is seeking a detail-oriented and analytically minded Inventory Material Analyst to support inventory health, material availability, and warehouse-capacity planning across our warehouse and manufacturing locations.

• Analyze age-sensitive and shelf-life-controlled materials, including expiration-date visibility, escalation, rotation, and disposition planning.
• Identify, monitor, and resolve obsolete, excess, slow-moving, and non-moving inventory; strengthen BETA’s material-review and disposition process.
• Analyze inventory data to identify opportunities to improve material availability, reduce shortages, and limit unnecessary inventory overage.
• Evaluate current and future warehouse-space utilization, including storage capacity, material dimensions, handling requirements, and projected inventory growth.
• Forecast space requirements based on item dimensions, inventory levels, demand forecasts, inbound material plans, and production requirements.
• Partner with Warehouse Operations to optimize storage layouts, slotting strategies, material flow, and capacity utilization.
• Develop standard reporting and dashboards for inventory health, safety stock, excess and obsolete inventory, shelf-life exposure, material availability, and warehouse capacity.
• Establish and maintain inventory-planning metrics, including on-hand inventory analysis, excess-and-obsolete value, aging inventory, expiration risk, and storage-capacity utilization.
• Conduct root-cause analysis on inventory shortages, excess, aging, expiration exposure, and capacity constraints; recommend and implement systemic improvements.
• Maintain inventory-planning data and parameters in BETA’s ERP and related systems to support accurate analysis and decision-making.
