This is a hands-on operations role focused on bringing structure, visibility, and control to the day-to-day running of a growing ecommerce business.
You will take ownership of core operational systems and processes, ensuring orders, suppliers, inventory, and reporting are accurately tracked and actively managed. This is not a passive support role, you will be expected to take initiative, maintain high standards of accuracy, and identify issues before they escalate.
Working directly with the founder, you will play a key role in transitioning the business from a fast-moving startup into a more structured, process-driven organisation. This role is ideal for someone organised, proactive, and eager to grow into greater responsibility over time.
