Supply Chain + Dropshipping store Manager
Worldwide
# 👗 Supply Chain Manager — Fashion Dropshipping (German Market, €1M+/Month) 🇩🇪 We're a fashion dropshipping brand doing over one million per month in the German market 💶. At that volume, supply chain isn't admin work, it's the difference between a healthy month and a month buried in disputes. German customers expect accurate product descriptions, realistic delivery times, and fast answers when something goes wrong. We need someone who already understands that. You won't be thrown in alone 🤝 Our Head of Supply Chain, who has run this exact role here for over two years, will onboard you and work alongside you. ## 🎯 What You'll Own **🔍 Quality control.** Run quality checks on all best sellers, plus weekly checks on the current weekly winners. Compare real supplier photos and videos against what's live on our website — color, material, sizing, pockets, buttons, zippers, all of it. Anything that doesn't match goes back to the supplier immediately. **💬 Supplier communication.** Stay in constant contact with suppliers on orders, stock, quality, sourcing, and shipping. Request actual photos, videos, size charts, and material specs. Chase unresolved issues until they're closed, and escalate fast when a supplier goes quiet or when customers and sales are being affected. **📦 Parcel Panel monitoring.** Track orders sitting in *Info Received*, *Unfulfilled*, and *Pending*. Find out why they're stuck and get them moving with the supplier. **🚫 Out-of-stock management.** Keep a clean overview of every OOS product and variant. Confirm availability with suppliers, source alternatives from other factories when needed, tell the Ads Manager to pause spend 📉, and make sure the website reflects reality. **🎧 Customer service coordination.** Work closely with our CS team on OOS orders and decide the right solution — alternative color or size, similar replacement, wait for restock, or cancel and refund. CS needs clear instructions fast so customers hear from us quickly, in line with our SOPs. ## 🧠 Who We're Looking For - ✅ Proven experience in supply chain / sourcing for e-commerce or dropshipping — this is not an entry-level role - 📉 Strong instinct for **keeping the dispute rate as low as possible**, and the initiative to suggest new ways to get there rather than waiting to be told - 💻 Comfortable working with systems and software (we'll onboard you on our exact stack) - 🤗 Easy to work with: fast to adopt new processes, communicates clearly, brings ideas - 🔎 Detail-obsessed — you notice the wrong zipper before the customer does - 🚀 Reliable, responsive, and hungry to grow with a brand that's scaling ## 🎁 What We Offer - 🧭 Direct mentorship from our head of supplychain who has done this role successfully for over two years with us - 🛠️ Full onboarding on our tools and processes - 📈 A high-volume, fast-moving brand where your work visibly moves the numbers - 🌱 Room to grow as we scale
