If you love order, accuracy, and that satisfying feeling when the numbers line up just right, this might be your moment. At Medela, we turn science into care to nurture health for generations — and that mission starts with keeping our Inventory in perfect shape. Right now, we’re looking for an Inventory Control Clerk to join our McHenry team and keep our warehouse humming with precision and purpose.

As an Inventory Control Clerk, you’ll be the behind-the-scenes hero who makes sure every product, part, and pallet is exactly where it should be. You’ll run daily and month-end reports, perform cycle counts, and reconcile Inventory to ensure that everything we ship — from essential medical devices to products that help families worldwide — is accurate and ready to go.

Here’s what we’re looking for:

  • At least one year of Inventory, distribution, warehouse, or related experience

  • Certified power equipment operator — forklift, stand-up reach lift, order/cherry picker, and turret truck experience required

  • Strong communication skills, both verbal and written

  • Proven ability to perform Inventory cycle counts and maintain detailed records

  • Comfort running daily reports and managing month-end Inventory processes

  • Solid Microsoft Excel skills and experience with an ERP system

If you’re someone who finds joy in clean data, balanced numbers, and smooth operations, this Inventory Control Clerk role will fit you like a well-packed pallet. You’ll collaborate with teammates who share your energy and take pride in the details that keep Medela’s Inventory moving with accuracy and care.

At Medela, we know that the best Inventory teams are built on trust, teamwork, and just a bit of fun. We’re proud of our inclusive, high-performing culture where every individual plays a key role in supporting families, hospitals, and healthcare providers around the world.

Here’s what you’ll love about working with us:

  • A generous PTO package and 14 paid holidays

  • Comprehensive health insurance for full-time employees

  • 401(k) with company match

  • 16 weeks of paid parental leave

  • A money purchase plan to help you invest in your future

So, if you’re ready to join a team that values precision as much as purpose — and you’re not afraid to roll up your sleeves and dive into Inventory challenges — this is your sign.

Don’t wait — fill out our quick, 3-minute application and take the next step toward becoming Medela’s next great Inventory Control Clerk!

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
