Job Description

Position Description:
WHERE PRECISION MEETS COMPLIANCE

This is not an entry-level role.

We are seeking an experienced Inventory Specialist with a strong background in highly regulated inventory environments to join our cannabis retail operation. This role is ideal for someone who has managed controlled, audited, or compliance-heavy inventory and understands that accuracy, documentation, and accountability are non-negotiable.

If you have experience in cannabis, pharmaceuticals, fine jewelry, medical supplies, or other tightly regulated goods, and you thrive in a fast-paced retail environment, we want to hear from you.

What You’ll Do
  • As an Inventory Specialist, you will be responsible for safeguarding the integrity of our inventory systems and ensuring full compliance with Michigan cannabis regulations. This role works closely with management, sales, and fulfillment teams and plays a critical role in daily operations.
  • Maintain accurate, real-time inventory across all cannabis product categories
  • Conduct daily, weekly, and cycle audits to ensure alignment between physical counts and digital systems
  • Manage product intake, verification, labeling, storage, and organization
  • Track product movement and flag discrepancies immediately
  • Ensure strict compliance with METRC and internal SOPs
  • Support sales and fulfillment teams with restocking and inventory flow
  • Prepare inventory for transfers, reconciliations, and compliance reviews
  • Communicate clearly with management regarding shortages, variances, or risk areas
  • Maintain organized, audit-ready inventory areas at all times
Required Experience & Qualifications
Required
  • 1+ years of inventory management experience in a regulated environment
  • Demonstrated experience working with controlled or high-value goods
  • Strong understanding of inventory audits, reconciliation, and documentation
  • Proven ability to work accurately under pressure and time constraints
  • Comfortable working in a high-volume retail environment
  • Must be 21+ and able to pass required background checks
Strongly Preferred
  • Cannabis retail or cultivation inventory experience
  • Experience with METRC or other seed-to-sale systems
  • Background in cannabis operations, pharmaceuticals, medical inventory, fine jewelry, luxury goods, or alcohol distribution
  • Familiarity with POS and inventory management software
  • Skills That Matter Here
  • Exceptional attention to detail — mistakes are costly in this role
  • Strong organizational and time-management skills
  • Clear written and verbal communication
  • Ability to follow SOPs precisely while adapting to daily operational needs
  • Team-oriented mindset with a high level of accountability
  • Calm, professional demeanor in a fast-paced setting
What This Role Is Not
  • Not an entry-level position
  • Not a budtender or customer-only role
  • Not suitable for candidates without inventory or compliance experience
  • Not a casual or “learn as you go” position
  • This role requires prior experience, precision, and ownership.
What We Offer
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Employee discounts
  • Consistent full-time schedule (30–40 hours per week)
  • Opportunity to grow within a leading Michigan cannabis company
  • A professional, accountable team environment that values accuracy and compliance
Who You Are
You take pride in getting things right the first time. You understand the responsibility that comes with regulated inventory and are confident managing systems, audits, and compliance requirements. You work well with others, communicate clearly, and recognize that inventory integrity is critical to a successful cannabis operation.
Physical Requirements:
  • Ability to stand, walk, and move throughout the facility for extended periods during scheduled shifts.
  • Must be able to frequently lift, carry, push, and pull inventory, boxes, and cannabis products weighing up to 25 pounds, and occasionally up to 50 pounds with assistance.
  • Ability to bend, stoop, kneel, crouch, climb, and reach overhead while organizing inventory, conducting audits, stocking products, and maintaining storage areas.
  • Comfortable performing repetitive inventory tasks, including counting, labeling, scanning, data entry, and product verification throughout the workday.
  • Ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced, high-volume retail and inventory environment with frequent movement and multitasking.
  • Must possess the manual dexterity necessary to handle cannabis products, packaging materials, scanners, computers, and inventory systems accurately and safely.
  • Ability to use inventory management software, METRC, point-of-sale systems, handheld scanners, and other operational equipment for extended periods.
  • Capable of maintaining a high level of focus, accuracy, and attention to detail while managing audits, reconciliations, and compliance documentation.
  • Ability to communicate clearly and professionally with management, fulfillment teams, vendors, and staff regarding inventory discrepancies, operational needs, and compliance matters.
  • Comfortable working in varying retail and stockroom conditions, including moderate noise levels, tight storage areas, and frequent movement between departments.
  • Ability to maintain organization, cleanliness, and audit-ready inventory conditions at all times.
  • Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions of the position.
