Location: REMOTE, Mexico

Employment Type: FULL-TIME / Contractor

Company: PELAGIC

Company Overview:

Pelagic is a collective of seasoned operational experts and passionate problem solvers with broad, diverse skill sets, earned knowledge, and a nimble, systems-first approach. We empower innovators to navigate complex operational challenges with our proven, sustainable solutions. We thrive on helping founders and leaders avoid the acute pains that we endured while scaling our own fast-growing companies.

Our service is flexible and ranges from ad hoc advisory to end-to-end supply chain management and optimization. Our team guides businesses of any size or stage through launch, rapid growth, and the inevitable operational hurdles that follow.

Identifying, analyzing, and solving the 'impossible' is daunting to most, but exhilarating to us - which is why we built Pelagic. Our mission is to transform the worlds' wildest visions into tangible realities.

Position Overview:

We are hiring a Supply Chain Lead to join our fast-growing team and support supply chain and operations projects for multiple CPG (Consumer Packaged Goods) clients. This role is ideal for someone organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable working in fast-paced environments. You will help improve processes, manage operational tasks, and support senior operators across different projects.

You are a tireless learner, ambitiously seeking personal growth, excited by the opportunity to learn how to build startups from the ground up, and not afraid to work harder than everyone else, but prioritize self-care. You can follow instructions in an organized way, but care to know why and how things work. You are obsessed with getting every detail perfect - every single time, and enjoy building systems to ensure and automate those results, consistently. You are humble, kind, eager, entrepreneurial, and excited to help people with the businesses they have spent their entire lives building. You are open and excited to learn from the incredible depth of experience on the Pelagic team.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in project management and supply chain, excellent interpersonal skills, an adept communicator, experience consulting to US-based companies, and proven "brain-splitting" multitasking ability across concurrent client engagements. Minimum 1-3 years of experience driving operational excellence.

Responsibilities:

• Work on all aspects of operations projects, including process analysis, optimization, and implementation.
• Collaborate with clients to understand their business objectives, challenges, and requirements related to operations.

• Work through project sprints to analyze and improve key systems, mitigate risks, and capitalize on opportunities.
• Conduct thorough assessments of current operational processes and identify areas for improvement.
• Utilize data-driven insights and analytical tools to identify trends, forecast demand, and optimize inventory management.
• Work closely with cross-functional teams, including procurement, logistics, and distribution, to ensure seamless execution of operational initiatives.

• Establish standardized Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) processes for maintaining operational efficiency.
• Monitor key performance indicators (KPIs) and performance metrics to track progress and identify opportunities for continuous improvement.
• Stay updated on industry trends, best practices, and emerging technologies in supply chain management and operations.

Qualifications:

• Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and prioritize tasks effectively.
• Software or tool specific experience (ie: excel, notion, airtable, smartsheet)
• International experience consulting to or operating within US-based companies
