    Job Description

    Role overview

    Picture your day: you kick off by reviewing new orders from multiple sales reps and customers, translating them into precise entries in the Amtech system. You coordinate with Production Scheduling to lock in machine time, place orders for stock sheets, and secure any cutting dies or printing plates needed to get the job moving. Throughout the day, you’re the connective tissue between Sales, Design, the plant floor, and the client—keeping details aligned, timelines on track, and communication clear.

    What you’ll drive

    • Order creation and maintenance in Amtech; end-to-end workflow oversight from intake through production and delivery tracking.
    • Procurement of materials and tooling (stock sheets, cutting dies, printing plates) and coordination of purchase orders.
    • Collaboration with Accounting to process credits and support billing accuracy.
    • Quoting for new projects; partnering closely with Sales, Customers, and Design to validate specifications and ensure accuracy on all new items.
    • Inventory awareness for warehouse items and stocked boxes; arranging and sending samples; maintaining organized customer files.
    • Plant collaboration to select appropriate machines and manufacturing routes for each box design.
    • Operational estimating: reading production tables, positioning patterns on blanks to reduce waste, and calculating material usage and cost based on quantity, quality, style, packaging, and delivery rates—including estimates for non-paperboard materials when needed.
    • Schedule stewardship: establishing delivery timelines, tracking progress, and ensuring due dates are consistently met.
    • Quality partnership: working closely with customers to validate outcomes against expectations.

    What you bring

    • Education: College degree or equivalent experience; 2–5 years of relevant industry experience and/or training, or a comparable blend of education and experience.
    • Communication: Able to read and interpret business periodicals, professional journals, technical procedures, and governmental regulations; skilled at writing reports, business correspondence, and procedures; comfortable presenting to managers, clients, customers, and the public.
    • Math and analysis: Facility with fractions, percentages, ratios, and proportions; strength in defining problems, gathering data, establishing facts, and drawing valid conclusions.
    • Tools: Proficiency with Amtech; Internet Explorer; Microsoft Excel and Word.
    • Work style: Confident with numbers; exceptionally organized; deft at multitasking; sharp attention to detail; polished phone presence; quick to build rapport and strong interpersonal relationships.
    • Flexibility: Willingness to work overtime, including occasional nights and weekends.

    Environment and expectations

    Attendance and adherence to company policies are essential to success in this role. You’ll operate in close partnership with production teams and customers, balancing precision, speed, and service.
