About the role
This is the sole operations role for a growing consumer brand building out its Taiwan market, so you will own the entire operations function single-handedly rather than inherit an established team. The scope runs end to end: international import and product certification, inbound and outbound logistics, inventory planning, the D2C online store, and day-to-day customer experience. The core challenge is standing up reliable, data-driven operations in a lean environment — sharpening demand forecasting, lifting inventory turnover, and creating the automation and SOPs the function currently lacks. As the brand expands its sales channels, you will also assess warehouse capacity and lead cost improvement across inventory and logistics.
What You'll Do
- Own demand forecasting and inventory planning across all sales channels, continuously improving forecast accuracy, inventory turnover, and allocation while reducing stockouts and slow-moving stock
- Manage international ordering, import, and customs clearance, including product inspection and certification applications such as BSMI and NCC
- Run daily inbound and outbound operations, including shipping, receiving checks, and stock movements, and coordinate 3PL and logistics partners
- Assess warehouse relocation or expansion as inventory volumes grow, and lead cost improvement across inventory and logistics
- Operate the Shopify back office end to end, maintaining orders, product, and inventory data
- Respond to customer inquiries daily and manage after-sales service, returns, exchanges, and complaints, while building SOPs, KPIs, and automation to raise efficiency
