We think you’ll appreciate our focus on Conscious Capitalism, which drives business decisions that benefit all our stakeholders (leading to even better business results). You might be drawn to our innovative approach and refusal to settle for the “way things have always been done.” Or you could find it exciting to grow your skills while working for an industry-leading brand. Whether you’re into our values, our brand, or our egg-cellent puns, we hope you’ll join our Crew and help us change the world 108 square feet at a time! At Vital Farms, we’re proud of the diverse communities we serve and the stakeholders who help bring our purpose to life. We’re committed to fostering an inclusive and collaborative environment where every crew member feels valued. We see this as one of our greatest strengths - and your role is key to helping us build on it. Your Role: The Supply Chain & Inventory Manager will play a key role in driving operational excellence across our end-to-end supply chain network. This role will oversee critical functions related to inventory control, planning, logistics, and process optimization to ensure product availability, accuracy, and efficiency. The ideal candidate brings a strong background in CPG supply chain operations and deep expertise in inventory management but also thrives in broader supply chain leadership and cross-functional collaboration. What You'll Do: Lead and continuously improve supply chain processes across planning, logistics, inventory control, and material flow to support business objectives and operational efficiency. Ensure inventory accuracy and reconciliation across all manufacturing, co-manufacturing, material providers and distribution locations. Partner cross-functionally with Operations, Finance, Accounting, IT, and external partners to drive consistency, compliance, and transparency in supply chain processes. Serve as a subject matter expert to develop best-in-class systems and tools (e.g., ERP, WMS) to optimize visibility and decision-making. Own and refine the company’s cycle counting and aged inventory management programs to reduce waste and obsolescence. Serve as a key point of contact and super user for Warehouse Management and ERP systems. Analyze supply chain data to identify trends, risks, and opportunities for process improvement. Manage and develop a small team responsible for day-to-day inventory and materials control. Support strategic initiatives including new system implementations, network optimization, and supplier collaboration projects. What You Bring to the Table: Bachelor’s Degree in Supply Chain, Operations, Business, or related field. 5–7 years of progressive experience in supply chain management, inventory control, or logistics—preferably within a fast-moving Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) or Food & Beverage environment. 3+ years' experience leading with a proven ability to develop teams while maintaining a sense of urgency and ownership. Demonstrated success in implementing process improvements and driving operational excellence across multiple sites or functions. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with high attention to detail and accuracy. Hands-on experience with ERP (D365 a plus) and WMS systems; advanced Excel and data analysis capabilities. Willingness to travel approximately 20% of the time to company meetings, manufacturing facilities, and partner sites as needed to support operations and relationship-building. Excellent communication and collaboration skills across functions and levels. Tech-savvy mindset with a continuous improvement approach to systems and processes. You’re no hero – You know the power of teamwork and celebrate the work of others before your own. You give a sh*t – You believe in acting like an owner and making Vital Farms a place to be proud of. You raise the standards – You know growth can be hard, but you strive to improve yourself and others each day. You can walk in someone else’s boots – You seek to understand other’s viewpoints and think that you get to better answers by sitting on the same side of the table. You don’t walk on eggshells – You’re not afraid to leave the bullsh*t behind and have honest conversations. We recognize that talent comes in many forms. Even if you don’t meet every requirement, we encourage you to apply. You may have strengths we haven’t yet considered! What We Bring to the Table: A fast-paced, energetic, remote environment with passionate people who are leading a movement to bring ethically produced food to the table. Competitive pay and benefits (Medical, Dental, Vision, and Paid Parental Leave, just to name a few). Generous retirement contributions: 401(k) + 3% Contribution from Day 1. Free eggs and butter (yes, really!), along with friends and family discounts. Fun team SWAG that will make you the talk of the town. Professional development opportunities and an amazing team dedicated to your growth.

A reasonable estimate of the current starting annual base salary for this position is $105,000 - $130,000. Please keep in mind that hiring at the maximum end of the range would not be typical in order to allow for potential continued future salary growth.
