The Role

The Supply Chain Coordinator owns the day-to-day flow of materials in and out of the facility: receiving raw materials and lab supplies, maintaining inventory, and processing outbound customer shipments. Most outbound shipments are temperature-sensitive protein products moving on dry ice to domestic and international customers. The role works closely with the production and sales teams, with carriers and with suppliers.
