Overview Ballard House is a founder-led ecommerce company that partners with established brands to scale Amazon operations using our in-house logistics, content creation and advertising infrastructure. Founded in 2017, we began as an Amazon reseller and transitioned to brand partnerships in 2023, bringing operational excellence to a portfolio of eight and nine-figure brands. We're hiring a Supply Chain Manager to own Amazon inventory management for our partner brands from demand planning to sell through. Responsibilities will include forecasting marketplace demand at the sku level, lead time management, purchase order creation, stock level monitoring, and managing supply chain assistants. You will also collaborate with our warehouse team on regular cycle counts and best practices for inventory management. This is not an account management role. You will not be responsible for sales calls or high-level brand strategy. Your job is to ensure we maintain optimal stock levels across our catalog, collaborate with our manufacturers to solve supply chain constraints and contribute to creating scalable systems that provide both visibility and control. If you like planning ahead, contributing to shared wins, tightening messy workflows, and becoming the person people trust to keep the machine moving, this is your lane.

Responsibilities :

Own day-to-day supply chain execution across assigned brands, including purchase order tracking, vendor follow-up, warehouse coordination, and replenishment workflows Monitor sales velocity, stock levels, and upcoming replenishment needs to prevent stockouts and overstocks Track liquidations and product launches cross functionally with the brand management team Coordinate freight quotes for inbound and outbound shipments in tandem with warehouse team Manage and train supply chain VA(s), including task assignment, quality control, follow-up, and recurring workflow improvement Work directly with COO on process improvement within the department Create, improve, and maintain supply chain related SOPs Stay curious and build practical working knowledge of Amazon operations, inventory management, ecommerce workflows, and internal systems Qualifications 2-5 years of experience in ecommerce operations, supply chain logistics, or another detail-heavy execution role Comfortable working with spreadsheets, task lists, dashboards, and operational data Clear written and verbal communicator who can document decisions, and keep people aligned Able to manage VA(s) or junior support team members with clarity and accountability Strong problem-solving instincts.

We offer competitive compensation and a high-trust, high-performance environment where operators can thrive.

Perks include:

Paid time off and paid holidays Work with founders and leadership daily Tools and training to help you grow in ecommerce and operations Hybrid, work from home opportunities A team that moves fast, wins together, and doesn't tolerate drama In addition, we provide a monthly health stipend to support coverage until we transition to a full healthcare and retirement package.
