About The Position

RAW Nutrition is looking for an Inventory Manager to oversee inventory accuracy, control, costing, planning, and reporting across the organization. This role will ensure inventory records accurately reflect physical inventory, investigate and resolve discrepancies, analyze inventory and costing variances, manage cycle count programs, and partner with Operations, Supply Chain, Warehouse, Finance, and Accounting teams to maintain strong inventory controls. This role is remote, open to United States residents with preference towards those in the Central and Eastern timezones.

Requirements

4+ years of inventory management, inventory control, or inventory accounting experience, ideally in CPG, food & beverage, or another physical-goods environment
Experience working with 3PLs and/or co-packers/co-manufacturers, including managing the inevitable data and communication gaps
Comfort with lot tracking, expiration dates, and FIFO/FEFO practices
Strong Excel/Google Sheets skills; experience with an ERP system (NetSuite, QuickBooks, Fishbowl, Cin7, SAP, or similar)
A demonstrated ability to build or improve a process, not just follow one — startups need people who create the playbook
Sharp analytical skills and comfort digging into root causes rather than just patching symptoms
Strong cross-functional communication — you'll be translating inventory issues for warehouse staff, finance leaders, and executives alike
High attention to detail paired with the ability to prioritize when everything feels urgent

Nice To Haves

Experience with a company going through rapid SKU or channel expansion (e.g., adding retail after DTC, or vice versa)
Familiarity with retailer EDI/chargebacks as they relate to inventory and fulfillment discrepancies
Experience supporting an audit or funding due diligence process
Exposure to demand planning or S&OP processes

Monitor aged, damaged, expired, obsolete, and slow-moving inventory.
Assist in developing disposition plans for obsolete or non-sellable inventory.
Review negative inventory, inventory shortages, duplicate transactions, and unusual inventory activity.
Maintain accurate SKU, item, location, and inventory-related master data.
