Supply Chain Coordinator

Job Description

Ready to jump into the action? As a Supply Chain Coordinator at TAC Rockford, you’ll be a key player in making sure products flow seamlessly in and out of our operations. From purchasing and managing shipments to handling both domestic and international logistics, you’ll have your hands in a variety of tasks.

This is not your typical desk job. While you’ll spend some time in the office, you’ll also be on your feet, navigating the hands-on aspects of our day-to-day operations. The role requires multitasking, attention to detail, organizational skills, and clear communication to keep everything running smoothly. This role will require ability to lift products and packages of various sizes and weights.

If you’re not already familiar with everything we do, don’t worry - we've got you covered. What we’re looking for is someone adaptable, eager to learn, and ready to face new challenges. Questions and curiosity are not just welcome - they’re encouraged.

Required Traits

• Curiosity and Learning: a strong desire to learn new information and apply it effectively.
• Customer Service Skills: exceptional ability to address customer inquiries and concerns with professionalism and positivity.
• Communication Skills: strong verbal and written communication abilities with a customer-focused approach.
• Friendly Attitude: a warm, approachable demeanor.
• Computer Proficiency: comfort with a variety of computer applications and software.
• Independence: ability to work autonomously, manage time effectively, and meet deadlines.

Key Responsibilities

• Process customer orders
• Generate purchase orders
• Verify contents of incoming orders
• Prepare outgoing shipments
• Coordinate with shipping carriers
• Monitor inventory levels
• Collaborate with suppliers, customers, and team members to resolve discrepancies
• Maintain an organized and efficient work environment
• Work to fully understand customer needs
• Anything else that needs to get done (everyone needs to sweep the floor at some point)

Desirable Qualifications (preferred but not required)

• Prior experience in a similar role
• Familiarity with general office procedures and equipment
• Knowledge of common business documents (purchase orders, quotes, invoices, etc.)
• International awareness and foreign language skills
• QuickBooks accounting software experience
• An Associate or Bachelor’s degree or equivalent work experience
• An appreciation for all things mechanical

This position is full-time and in-person. Compensation is based on skills and experience. TAC Rockford offers an excellent 401k plan with an industry-leading company match, paid vacation and holidays (including your birthday and a "Ferris Bueller's Day Off"), a Rockford MakerSpace membership (RockfordMakerSpace.org), and more.
