Materials Manager - Tarboro, NC
for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information, remove boilerplate like EEO, etc. Also remove "Equal Opportunity Employer ..." lines.
We need to include "Who We Are" maybe as part of About the role? The posting includes "Who We Are" before About the Role. Should we include that? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't list "Who We Are". But we could incorporate that into About the role section as prose. Probably we should include "Who We Are" as part of About the role description.
We need to not include Job ID etc.
We need to ensure we don't create sections with placeholder text.
Thus sections:
- About the role (maybe combine Who We Are and About the Role)
- Responsibilities (What You'll Do)
- Requirements (What You'll Bring) (could also be Qualifications)
We could also have a "Skills" section but not needed.
We'll output:
About the role
... combined Who We Are and About the Role paragraphs ...
Then Responsibilities
- ... each bullet from What You'll Do ...
Then Requirements
- ... each bullet from What You'll Bring ...
We need to preserve all substantive info: include details like "Bachelor's Degree...", "5+ years...", etc.
We need to remove duplicated lines: there may be duplicates? Not obvious.
We need to remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. So remove the Equal Opportunity Employer paragraph.
Let's extract content.
Who We Are:
"At Air Systems Components (ASC), we are a leading manufacturer of high-quality HVAC air distribution products that support commercial and industrial construction projects across North America. The Tarboro facility specializes in the production of Terminal Units, Grilles, Registers, and Diffusers, supported by an in-house sheet metal fabrication cell that plays a critical role in delivering quality, flexibility, and customer responsiveness.

The successful candidate will collaborate closely with operations, manufacturing, purchasing, engineering, and customer service teams to optimize material flow throughout the facility and drive continuous improvement initiatives."
Why Join Us? includes bullet points: Drive Operational Excellence, Support a Diverse Manufacturing Environment, Innovate & Optimize, Collaborate & Lead. Those are more like selling points; could be part of About the role or separate? But we can incorporate them into About the role as prose or maybe as a separate section "Why Join Us?" but not in allowed headings. Since only allowed headings list, we could incorporate them into About the role as prose.
What You'll Do (Responsibilities) list:
- Scheduling, Planning & Customer Delivery
- Develop and oversee master production schedules to support customer demand and achieve on-time delivery objectives.
- Ensure material availability for terminal unit assembly operations and sheet metal fabrication processes.
- Balance production capacity, material constraints, and customer requirements to optimize throughput.
- Partner with production, procurement, and customer service teams to proactively manage changing demand and priorities.
- Utilize ERP/MRP systems to support planning, forecasting, and inventory management activities.
- Inventory Management
- Lead inventory control processes, including cycle counts, physical inventories, and inventory accuracy initiatives.
- Manage raw materials, fabricated components, purchased parts, and finished goods inventories.
- Drive reduction of excess and obsolete inventory while maintaining appropriate safety stock levels.
- Analyze inventory trends and implement forecasting strategies to improve inventory turns and service levels.
- Coordinate movement of materials between fabrication, assembly, warehousing, and external processing locations.
- Warehouse & Logistics Oversight
- Manage warehouse operations, receiving, storage, material handling, and shipping functions.
- Ensure safe, efficient material flow supporting both fabrication and assembly operations.
- Oversee inbound and outbound freight activities in accordance with company logistics strategies.
- Monitor warehouse performance metrics and implement process improvements to increase efficiency and accuracy.
- Ensure compliance with safety, quality, and inventory control standards.
- Supplier Scheduling & Performance
- Collaborate with sourcing and procurement teams to ensure reliable material supply.
- Monitor supplier delivery performance and resolve material shortages or supply disruptions.
- Manage supplier schedules to align with production requirements and inventory objectives.
- Support supplier development efforts focused on lead time reduction, quality improvement, and cost optimization.
- Participate in strategic sourcing and supplier partnership initiatives when needed.
- Leadership & Continuous Improvement
- Champion the ADMS Material Control Pillar and support lean manufacturing initiatives throughout the facility.
- Lead continuous improvement efforts focused on inventory management, planning accuracy, material flow, and supply chain performance.
- Establish and track key performance indicators including inventory turns, inventory accuracy, supplier delivery performance, and customer service metrics.
- Develop, mentor, and lead a high-performing materials, warehouse, and planning team.
- Foster a culture of accountability, collaboration, and operational excellence.
What You'll Bring (Requirements):
- Bachelor's Degree in Supply Chain Management, Business, Engineering, Operations Management, or a related field. Equivalent experience will be considered.
- 5+ years of progressive experience in materials management, production planning, inventory control, supply chain, or manufacturing operations.
- Experience supporting manufacturing environments involving fabrication, assembly, or sheet metal processing is strongly preferred.
- Strong understanding of MRP/ERP systems, inventory management principles, and production scheduling.
- Experience leading warehouse, logistics, planning, or materials teams.
- Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite, particularly Excel.
- Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and organizational skills.
- Strong communication and cross-functional leadership capabilities.
- Preferred certifications include APICS CPIM, CSCP, CLTD, or other related supply chain certifications.
We need to output as - for each bullet. For sub-bullets? The original has headings within responsibilities; we could treat each top-level bullet as a list item, and within each we could have nested lists? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. It doesn't forbid nested lists, but we can keep simple: each line as
- . Could also keep headings as part of li text.
Simplify: produce a flat list of all duty statements. But that may lose grouping. However instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; grouping is not required but could be considered part of content. Safer to keep headings as plain text inside li.
Thus for each responsibility heading we can include as part of li text: e.g., "
- Scheduling, Planning & Customer Delivery: Develop and oversee master production schedules..." but we shouldn't add extra tags like strong? Not prohibited but better to keep simple.
We'll just produce each bullet as a line starting with the heading then colon then details.
Let's craft.
We'll output:
