Description

Are you a hands-on, systems-savvy operations leader with a passion for quality and efficiency? We’re a fast-growing tea company delivering expertly crafted blends across Canada and the U.S., and we’re on a mission to take our teas to the world. We’re looking for a dedicated, detail-oriented, and growth-minded Operations and Logistics Manager to join our team and grow with us long term.

readiness.

  • Strong working knowledge of U.S. and Canadian import/export regulations, including

FDA Prior Notice and customs procedures.

  • Proven experience managing Amazon Seller Central and FBA inventory, as well as

Shopify and other retail platforms.

  • Experience with ERP systems like Cin7 (or similar inventory and order management

tools).

  • Strong background in inventory management, forecasting, and order fulfillment to

both B2B and DTC channels.

  • Comfortable leading production and fulfillment teams, ensuring adherence to

protocols and performance metrics.

  • Knowledge of LEAN systems and process improvement methodologies.
  • Excellent problem-solving, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
  • A team player with a long-term mindset, excited to grow alongside a mission-driven

company.

  • Adaptable, proactive, and energized by a fast-paced, high-growth environment.
  • Must be a Canadian Citizen or Permanent Resident of Canada — this is a long-term

position with room to grow.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Reporting to the CEO, the Operations Manager will oversee all aspects of production, logistics, inventory, and fulfillment.

national distributors and café partners.

  • Oversee Amazon fulfillment operations, including inventory level management, FBA

  • Own and optimize processes across Shopify, Amazon, and other e-commerce and

retail platforms.

  • Manage and maintain systems for inventory planning, demand forecasting, and supply

chain coordination.

  • Ensure full food safety compliance with HACCP, GFSI, and other applicable

standards.

  • Handle all import and export requirements for food products, including:
  • U.S. exports (issuing FDA Prior Notices, handling customs clearance).
  • Maintaining proper documentation for Canadian and international regulatory

compliance.

  • Implement and continuously improve LEAN manufacturing processes.
  • Use ERP systems such as Cin7 (or similar) to track inventory, purchasing, and logistics

across channels.

  • Coordinate with third-party logistics, customs and suppliers to ensure on-time, efficient,

and high-quality execution.
