- Match invoices with packing slips and assist with purchase tracking
- Follow up on open items from production meetings and ensure accountability
- Ensure setup sheets and job travellers are digitized, accurate, and in use on the floor
Qualifications
- 2+ years of experience in manufacturing, preferably CNC or job shop environments
- Bachelor’s degree in industrial or mechanical engineering or equivalent experience
- Strong organizational and multitasking skills
- Excellent communication and follow-through with internal teams and external vendors
