  • Conduct regular cycle counts, full inventory audits, and daily reconciliations; investigate, document, and resolve discrepancies.
  • Ensure compliance with all applicable state and local cannabis regulations, including tracking, reporting, testing documentation, security, and recordkeeping requirements.
  • Process product manifests, transfers, returns, quarantines, recalls, and waste disposal accurately and on time.
  • Monitor expiration dates and manage aging or slow-moving inventory to minimize loss.
  • Serve as Agent in Charge (AIC) when required, overseeing inventory transfers, returns, and disposal activities.
  • Assist with compliance audits, regulatory inspections, and product recalls as needed.
  • Uphold cleanliness, organization, and security standards in all back-of-house inventory areas.

Team Leadership & Collaboration
  • Directly supervise Inventory Coordinators, including scheduling, task delegation, coaching, training, performance reviews, and corrective action.
  • Provide hands-on onboarding and ongoing training to ensure consistency, accuracy, and regulatory compliance.
  • Communicate clearly with team members to ensure expectations, priorities, and procedures are well understood.
  • Foster a positive, inclusive, and collaborative work environment that emphasizes teamwork, accountability, and mutual respect.
  • Balance individual and team responsibilities while supporting team success over personal interests.
  • Give and receive feedback constructively and contribute to building morale and commitment to shared goals.

Product, Vendor & Operational Support
  • Oversee product intake by verifying manifests against incoming shipments and entering products into seed-to-sale systems promptly.
  • Coordinate with vendors and purchasing teams to maintain appropriate stock levels, product variety, and compliant supply.
  • Review and maintain all required product testing results and compliance documentation.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with cultivators and vendors.
  • Prepare and analyze inventory reports to support sales trends, prevent stockouts, and optimize inventory turnover.
  • Collaborate with dispensary leadership, marketing, and sales teams to identify promotions and movement strategies for slow-moving products.
  • Pick and pull inventory for in-store and online order fulfillment and support dispensary staff with inventory-related troubleshooting.
  • Support the Store/Dispensary Manager with operational needs, including occasional opening or closing of the store when required.
  • Identify and implement process improvements to enhance inventory accuracy, efficiency, and operational performance.
What We're Looking For
The ideal candidate is an experienced inventory leader who is passionate about operational excellence, regulatory compliance, and developing high-performing teams.
Qualifications include:
  • 3+ years of inventory management experience in a retail or regulated industry; cannabis experience strongly preferred.
  • 2+ years of supervisory experience with proven ability to coach and lead a team.
  • Working knowledge of Metrc and retail POS systems.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to analyze and reconcile complex data.
  • Familiarity with state-specific cannabis inventory and tracking regulations.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, especially Excel and Outlook.
