Bare Home | Forest Lake, Minnesota, United States (On-site)
About Us: JP Ecommerce has been named one of the top-ten, fastest growing businesses in Minnesota by Inc. 5000 for the past four years in a row. We provide customers with high-quality bedding through our brand Bare Home. As a leading textile retail company, we source premium products from key regions including China, India, Pakistan, and Turkey. Our commitment to excellence has earned us a reputation as an industry leader in sustainable and ethical textile sourcing.
Position Overview:
We are seeking a strategic Supply Chain Operations Manager to serve as the right-hand to our Logistics & Operations Director. This is NOT a transportation management role-we need someone with expertise in international trade, supply chain operations, and cost optimization who can touch every aspect of our business from overseas manufacturing to Amazon fulfillment.
This role requires breadth-you'll support sourcing decisions, negotiate vendor contracts, optimize pick/pack operations, evaluate warehouse automation, and conduct cost analysis on everything from payment terms to duty drawbacks. If you're energized by the complexity of international supply chain operations and love finding efficiencies that directly impact the bottom line, this is your opportunity.
Key Responsibilities:
International Trade & Freight Forwarding:
Schedule and manage container flows from manufacturers in China, India, Pakistan, and Turkey
Build and maintain relationships with freight forwarders to optimize shipping costs and transit times
Navigate customs documentation, compliance requirements, and duty drawback opportunities
Lead implementation of Free Trade Zone (FTZ) operations to reduce duties and improve cash flow
Analyze optimal routing and consolidation strategies for overseas shipments
Work with vendors on export documentation and compliance requirements
Cost Analysis & Financial Optimization:
Conduct landed cost analysis to determine most cost-effective sourcing and shipping decisions
Analyze vendor payment terms and contract structures to identify cost savings opportunities
Evaluate financial impact of different shipping methods, consolidation strategies, and routing options
Support contract negotiations with vendors and service providers
Track and reduce costs across the entire supply chain from factory to customer
Make data-driven recommendations on where to ship containers and how to optimize flows
Supply Chain Operations & Vendor Management:
Serve as right-hand to Logistics & Operations Director, acting in their absence as needed
Support sourcing and purchasing operations with supply chain expertise and cost analysis
Assist sourcing team in vendor cost reduction projects and process improvements
Develop and maintain relationships with overseas vendors and freight forwarders
Negotiate contracts and service agreements with freight forwarders and logistics partners
Support vendor communication channels for receiving, documentation, and compliance issues
Amazon FBA Operations:
Optimize Amazon Warehousing & Distribution (AWD) and FBA inbound flows to minimize storage fees
Analyze whether to ship directly to Amazon or consolidate through our warehouse
Work with warehouse General Manager on inbound/outbound FBA shipping coordination
Monitor Amazon inventory levels and adjust flows to prevent stockouts and storage limit violations
Collaborate with forecasting team to anticipate Amazon capacity requirements
Warehouse Operations Support:
Organize and optimize pick/pack operations for efficiency and accuracy
Support warehouse expansion project as we add 100,000+ square feet of space
Assist in sourcing and evaluating warehouse equipment including racking systems, robotics, and automation
Support evaluation and implementation of Warehouse Management Systems (WMS)
Analyze warehouse capacity, receiving capabilities, and space utilization
Work with warehouse team on layout optimization, heat mapping, and process improvements
Strategic Planning & Execution:
Analyze current state operations across the entire supply chain and identify improvement opportunities
Proactively track systems, anticipate bottlenecks, and implement solutions before problems escalate
Support cross-functional initiatives spanning sourcing, purchasing, warehousing, and fulfillment
Collaborate with leadership on strategic decisions affecting supply chain and operations
Manage multiple projects simultaneously with a hands-on, execution-focused approach
Qualifications & Requirements:
Education & Experience:
Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, International Business, Operations Management, or related field
5+ years of experience in supply chain operations, international trade, or global sourcing
Proven experience managing container flows from overseas manufacturers
Strong background in cost analysis, landed cost calculations, and financial modeling
Supply Chain & Technical Skills:
Deep understanding of international supply chain operations including freight forwarding, customs, and compliance
Experience with Amazon FBA/AWD operations and Seller Central or Vendor Central
Advanced Excel skills are essential - pivot tables, vlookups, complex formulas, financial modeling, capacity planning
Experience with ERP systems (we use SellerCloud, transitioning to NetSuite)
Knowledge of Free Trade Zones (FTZ), customs documentation, and duty drawback programs
Understanding of warehouse operations, WMS systems, and automation technologies
Familiarity with pick/pack optimization and warehouse layout design
Analytical & Strategic Abilities:
Strong financial acumen with ability to analyze cost structures and identify savings opportunities
Demonstrated ability to conduct landed cost analysis and make data-driven sourcing/shipping decisions
Experience evaluating and negotiating vendor contracts and service agreements
Ability to analyze current state operations and develop improvement roadmaps
Understanding of small business operations and how supply chain decisions impact profitability
Personal Qualities:
Hands-on, execution-focused mindset with ability to roll up sleeves and get things done
Broad supply chain knowledge spanning buying, freight forwarding, customs, warehousing, and fulfillment
Self-motivated with excellent project management abilities and ability to juggle multiple priorities
Proactive problem-solver who anticipates issues and implements solutions before problems escalate
Growth mindset with eagerness to learn and take on new challenges
Strong communication skills for coordinating with international vendors and cross-functional teams
Adaptable team player who thrives in entrepreneurial, fast-paced, growth-oriented culture
What Makes You Perfect for This Role:
You're a supply chain professional who sees the big picture-you understand how decisions at the vendor level affect landed costs, how container scheduling impacts warehouse capacity, and how FBA flows affect storage fees and customer satisfaction. You're comfortable analyzing spreadsheets to determine the most cost-effective way to route containers from Pakistan, then jumping on a call with a freight forwarder to discuss customs documentation, and then walking the warehouse floor to evaluate racking configurations.
This role requires breadth across the supply chain-you'll touch everything from sourcing and purchasing support to freight forwarding, customs compliance, Amazon operations, warehouse optimization, and cost analysis. You're not managing a trucking department; you're optimizing how a fast-growing e-commerce company buys, receives, and fulfills products from four countries to customers nationwide. If that sounds like your ideal challenge, we want to hear from you.
Why "Go Bare":
High-impact role touching every aspect of supply chain from overseas vendors to customer delivery
