Inventory Control Specialist

Picture your day at PALFINGER’s Trenton facility: you start with a targeted cycle count, reconcile a discrepancy you spotted yesterday, receive inbound materials against packing slips, and update locations so production has exactly what they need—right when they need it. You stage pallets safely with a forklift, keep aisles tidy, and close the loop in the system so our data mirrors reality. That’s how you’ll keep operations moving smoothly and safely.
