Offer description

About the Role

This is a great opportunity for someone ready to step up from an assistant, team lead or support role into something with more responsibility and real progression. You'll work closely with the Managing Director of a multi-brand e-commerce business, learning hands-on how to run operations from top to bottom.

If you're organised, switched-on, and keen to learn how a successful business is run day to day — this could be your next big move.

About Us

We run several consumer product brands across household, wellness, and personal care, selling through Amazon, Shopify, eBay and B2B. Our warehouse and head office are based in Aylesford, Kent, where a small, experienced team handles fulfilment, admin, and marketing.

We're profitable, self-funded, and growing steadily — with a focus on smart, sustainable scale, not hype.

Who You'll Be Working With

You'll be working directly with the Managing Director, who's built and run e-commerce businesses for over 15 years. From sourcing and shipping to branding and platforms, you'll get direct exposure to how real decisions are made — not just handed tasks to complete.

This is a chance to learn the business inside out — supply chains, profit margins, operations systems — and build real skills that you won't get in a corporate structure.

What You'll Be Doing

Daily Operations & Fulfilment

* Oversee order flow and dispatch across Amazon, Shopify, and eBay
* Ensure timely and accurate pick, pack, and shipping with the warehouse team
* Handle basic issues with returns, couriers, or order sync problems

Stock & Supplier Management

* Monitor stock levels and flag when to reorder
* Coordinate with our sourcing office in China and UK suppliers
* Help manage inbound deliveries and product launch prep

Team Support

* Assist with scheduling and keeping the team on track
* Step in during busy periods or when the MD is focused on growth
* Keep day-to-day operations running smoothly

Systems, Reporting & Projects

* Use spreadsheets and dashboards to track ops performance
* Support new product rollouts and internal process improvements
* Report weekly on operations, challenges, and outcomes

What We're Looking For

* 2–5 years in a support, supervisor, or assistant-level operations role
* Familiar with tools like Excel, Amazon Seller Central, or Shopify
* Organised, proactive, and willing to get stuck in
* Wants to learn the "why" behind the work — not just follow instructions
* Confident communicating with teams and suppliers
* Bonus if you've worked in a small business or direct-to-consumer setup

Job Types: Full-time, Graduate

Pay: £24,000.00-£30,000.00 per year

Ability to commute/relocate:

* Aylesford ME20 7HP: reliably commute or plan to relocate before starting work (preferred)

Education:

* Certificate of Higher Education (preferred)

Experience:

* Retail management: 2 years (preferred)

Language:

* English (preferred)

Work authorisation:

* United Kingdom (preferred)

Location:

* Aylesford ME20 7HP (preferred)

Work Location: In person
