Materials Representative information

What does a materials representative do?

A Materials Representative is responsible for managing the procurement, inventory, and distribution of materials within an organization. They coordinate with suppliers, monitor stock levels, and ensure that materials are available when needed for production or operations. Their role typically involves tracking shipments, handling documentation, and collaborating with other departments to maintain efficient supply chain processes. This position is vital for minimizing delays and ensuring smooth business operations.

What are some common challenges a materials representative faces when managing inventory across multiple locations?

Materials Representatives often encounter challenges like tracking inventory accuracy across multiple warehouses or production sites, ensuring timely delivery of supplies, and preventing shortages or overstock situations. Coordinating with various departments—such as procurement, logistics, and production—requires strong communication and organizational skills. Adapting to changing project demands and addressing unexpected supply chain disruptions are also common aspects of the role. Proactive problem-solving and effective use of inventory management systems are essential to overcoming these challenges.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a materials representative, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Materials Representative, you need a solid understanding of inventory management, supply chain logistics, and basic procurement practices, often supported by a high school diploma or associate degree. Familiarity with enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, inventory tracking software, and barcoding technology is typically required. Attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and effective communication help manage inventory levels and coordinate with vendors and internal teams. These skills and qualities ensure efficient material flow, reduce errors, and support smooth operations in manufacturing or distribution environments.

Materials Representatives focus on managing specific material supplies, maintaining inventory, and liaising with suppliers on-site. Procurement Specialists handle broader purchasing strategies, negotiate contracts, and source materials for organizations. While both roles involve supply chain activities, Materials Representatives are more hands-on with inventory and supplier communication, whereas Procurement Specialists focus on strategic sourcing and procurement processes.

In this role, you will participate in the continual enhancement of the material control and accountability program. Under limited supervision, your responsibilities will include:
  • Serve as a Tamper Indicating Device (TID) Applicator by maintaining all aspects of the program, including application, removal and tracking.
  • Generate Department of Transportation (DOT) shipping paperwork for onsite and offsite radioactive shipments and physically move radioactive material onsite.
  • Participate in annual physical inventories of material balance areas.
  • Provide material accountability services and support to include acquisition, transferring, shipping, and reporting abnormalities of nuclear material.
  • Travel for training is required.

Position Requirements

  • Proficient in use of computers, specifically MS Access and Excel.
  • Knowledge of Nuclear and hazardous materials, safety practices and disposal regulations.
  • Minimum of a 4-year college degree or equivalent experience, preferably in a science field, health physics continuity, nuclear field, chemistry or security related field.
  • Knowledge of physics, chemistry, mathematics, accounting, and radiation safety.
  • Ability to interact effectively with a diverse group of technical, professional and management personnel.
  • Strong skills in oral, written and interpersonal communications, including the ability to work independently and within a team.
  • Demonstrated skills in organization, time management, and providing detailed and accurate documentation.
  • Ability to be a steward of Lab resources.
  • Ability to model Argonne's Core Values: Impact, Safety, Respect, Integrity, and Teamwork.

Preferred skills, abilities, and experience:
  • Proficient in use of computers, specifically Local Area Nuclear Material Accountability Software (LANMAS), and Safeguards Management Software (SAMS).
  • Knowledge of Special Nuclear Materials accounting, inventory and reporting processes as defined in DOE and Argonne safeguards and security regulations and requirements.
  • Knowledge in the interpretation and implementation/enforcement of the regulations and requirements of DOE, DOT and Argonne pertaining to the transportation of nuclear and radioactive materials, as well as the safe handling and storage of these materials.
  • Working knowledge of Argonne National Laboratory and radioactive material.
  • Relevant experience in the transportation of radioactive material, working at a DOE facility or nuclear facility, inventory and audit, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
