To think really well our brains needs rest and focus. In balancing our time, energy and attention, we rejuvenate with power naps, mindfulness or even a quick planking challenge.
In a nutshell
We’re a fast-growing global brand, with warehouses, stockists and customers all over the world. Since we launched with a range of five wallets 14 years ago, we have now grown to release about 50 new products a year (give or take). Our Production team plays a key role in getting all of all of these products (and those yet to come) out into the world and into the hands of our customers. We’re currently on the search for a Production & Supply Coordinator to maintain the flow of product that enables everything else we do. Sound interesting? Keep reading!
As our Production & Supply Coordinator, you’ll be working closely with our vendors, internal teams and system platforms, managing relationships and processes to keep everything moving along as it should. You’ll need to be able to manage purchase orders and accuracy across multiple channels, maintain SKU data across systems, and proactively identify potential issues or delays before they impact operations. You’ll be responsible for monitoring purchase order statuses, inventory levels, maintaining transaction record integrity and ensuring seamless coordination between our HQ, vendors, and customers. That’s a lot of movement to track, so naturally, you’d be highly organised, meticulous and able to get sh*t done quickly, calmly and methodically (at least 90% of the time – because nobody’s perfect).
None of that scares you away, because you have some experience and a few processes up your sleeve, to know how to handle it. But while your organisation, communication and spreadsheet skills are tight, you’d walk in here ready and super keen to learn way more. We’re all about learning, so you’ll fit right in here.
You could be the one if you have
- 1-3 years of experience in supply chain, purchasing, production or supplier management (experience working with overseas suppliers is desirable, but not essential)
- Excellent communication and relationship management skills
- Hands-on experience with ERP systems (NetSuite preferred) and can navigate new systems
- Managed purchase orders from creation through completion on ERP systems
- Are experienced in maintaining transaction records, conducting reconciliations, and resolving data discrepancies.
- Worked directly with suppliers on delivery schedules and negotiated production priorities
- The ability to develop processes and continuously improve them
- Strong organisation and analytical skills, with great attention to detail(Intermediate to advanced knowledge of Excel/ Google Sheets)
If you were here last week, here are some of the things you might have done
- Worked with our Supply Planner to understand the required orders, and generated purchase orders in Netsuite for everything from new product launches to stock top-ups
- Communicated the weekly and monthly plan with our suppliers and made agreements with them on delivery timelines – then monitored their output to make sure they were on track
- Tracked in-transit shipments and did the needful to ensure delivery ETA is within the deadline
- Worked closely with the quality assurance team to allow quality inspection schedules in accordance with cargo ready date and shipment schedule from suppliers.
- Worked closely with the remote support team to ensure inbound shipments are processed on time in ERP system without any errors
- Worked with your manager in the continuous improvement of existing processes and implemented a process for PO tracking that reduced manual touchpoints and improved delivery visibility
- Supported our sales team with a couple of special orders and shipping arrangements to our customers
