Key Responsibilities

Inventory Monitoring and Reconciliation

• Maintain inventory reports and tracking spreadsheets to support inventory decisions and timely execution of product movements.
• Export scheduled stock transport orders (STOs) and purchase orders (POs) and combine them into a consolidated spreadsheet to maintain visibility of shipments moving to downstream terminals.

Stock Transfers and Inventory Transactions

• Maintain STOs for Cross Oil Mexico restocks and coordinate with Procurement on the corresponding PO for each shared restock transaction.
• Execute manual goods receipts and transfer postings for STO shipments. Complete post-delivery postings to move product from in-transit to in-stock inventory and resolve differences between loaded and delivered volumes.

• Manage restock orders and associated adjustments, including additional processing for split loads that cannot be removed before loading.
• Complete post-loading updates to the freight lane or individual PO associated with each vessel STO, as required.

Rail Shipment Documentation

• Enter railcar numbers manually on STOs when they do not transfer from Terminal Manager or Fuel Facts.
• Send railcar STOs to ERI and EWV so console operators can print the documents and load the railcars.
• Send standard POs for Cross downstream railcar shipments to Cross for entry into its JDE system.

Blending Packaging and Invoice Support

• Perform blend order true-ups and settle blend volumes in S/4HANA, including obtaining and entering the density information required to close transactions.
• Process third-party drum and tote subcontracting transactions, including restock orders to source product, subcontracting POs, and goods receipts.
• Complete manual invoice coding for transactions assigned to the inventory specialist.

Basic Qualifications

• Proficiency in Microsoft Office, including Excel and Word; ability to combine data exports, maintain tracking spreadsheets, and prepare inventory reports.
• Effective written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills.
• Ability to coordinate work across departments and maintain effective relationships with terminals, refineries, and external service providers.
