Job Description

About the company

Cross Path Capital is a successful and growing remote based eCommerce company that has been in business for more than 8 years.  In 2016 we started as resellers out of a garage in Newport Beach, CA and have since grown to a team of 8 selling over $10M of product annually. We sell our products through our 2 main brands - Barnyard Designs (Home Decor), and Seedboy (Gardening) on various channels such as Amazon, Walmart, Wayfair, Shopify, and Faire. 

Our main mission is to 1) bring quality products to market at a fair price, and 2) create a work environment for motivated, self driven individuals who want to build something meaningful with like minded individuals.

Bringing quality products to market at a fair price sounds simple in theory, but it requires immense skill, coordination, and execution. When a customer trusts us with their hard earned money our promise is to provide them with an experience that leaves them satisfied. Everything from customer service, product design, inventory management, and pricing (to name a few), need to be in sync to make this happen.

By doing this at scale we can create a curated work environment of like minded people working collectively towards a common mission that is bigger than the sum of its parts. We believe in hard work, but also work life balance, intensity and ownership, but also group collaboration and teamwork, being efficient and effective, but also taking time to joke around or check in personally with each other. Above all, we believe that by working together towards a common goal we can create something bigger than ourselves where we can all benefit and share in the success.

Why Join Us

Ready for a new challenge or left feeling unfulfilled in your current role? You will be joining a small but highly dynamic, dedicated, and motivated team. We value continuous improvement and are readily open to new ideas and suggestions.  Each individual can and does make a difference. Team members are treated with respect and everybody’s opinion is valued. We work hard and share a strong desire to succeed and improve as an organization as well as individually. You will have the ability to make a major impact on this small but efficient team.

About the role

We're in search of a full time Supply Chain Manager, a crucial role in elevating our brand's presence and performance on Amazon. This position is ideal for a strategic thinker who excels in data analysis, coordination, and managing the end-to-end supply chain cycle on Amazon. If you're a self-starter, adept at steering data-informed initiatives, and possess a creative flair for overcoming market challenges - you're the candidate we're looking for.

As our Supply Chain Manager, you will manage the end-to-end functions for our entire supply chain (~200 SKUs, mainly sold through Amazon US and CA) from building forecasts, planning purchase orders with suppliers, coordinating international and domestic logistics, and reporting on and owning key inventory metrics. Your responsibility is to ensure efficiency, cost effectiveness, and accuracy across our entire supply chain. This role requires a deep understanding of what it takes to run a smooth and efficient supply chain while also being able to collaborate cross functionally and with outside vendors/suppliers.

About you

Our Ideal Candidate

Meet Alex, a seasoned supply chain expert whose journey in logistics and inventory management has been nothing short of remarkable. Alex exhibits a keen analytical mind and an innate ability to translate data into strategic actions, laying the foundation for running a successful supply chain department at a fast growing ecommerce company.

Alex’s role involved designing and executing a multi-faceted inventory management solution that seamlessly integrated Amazon Global Logistics (AGL), Third Party Warehouses (3PLs), Amazon Warehousing & Distribution (AWD), Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA), and other marketplace fulfillment solutions like Walmart Fulfillment Services (WFS). Alex's deep understanding of these systems enabled the creation of an efficient and cohesive strategy that ensured inventory was always in the right place at the right time.

Understanding the importance of synergy between departments, Alex worked closely with the marketing team to build and maintain SKU-level forecasts on a rolling 30-day basis. Their meticulous approach ensured that forecasts were continually refined based on actual performance, allowing the marketing team to make informed decisions on whether to push or slow down sales.

Alex’s role didn't stop at forecasting. They took charge of building purchase order recommendations and overseeing the production team in confirming and tracking orders with suppliers. Their strategic mind and organizational prowess ensured that the production and procurement schedules ran smoothly with minimal disruptions.

Shipping logistics can be a complex puzzle, but for Alex it was just another challenge to master. They always determined the optimal shipping strategy to minimize costs and delays while negotiating the best possible rates with the carrier. Their efforts in coordinating domestic transfer orders also ensured that marketplaces were always adequately stocked.

Alex’s attention to detail was evident in the management of accurate inventory counts and landed costs across the catalog. Their relentless focus on precision helped achieve a 99% accuracy rate in inventory reporting. Furthermore, they tracked, owned, and reported on critical supply chain metrics, ensuring transparency and accountability at every step.

Under Alex’s stewardship, the company displayed impressive performance metrics. They achieved 3+ inventory turns per year, maintained a 95%+ in-stock rate for top-selling SKUs, and kept warehousing/storage charges below 5% of the cost of revenue. These achievements were a testament to their strategic planning and execution capabilities.

With a deep understanding of supply chain principles and a preemptive approach to problem-solving, Alex continues to drive success and efficiency in the supply chain arena, embodying excellence in every aspect of their role. Alex’s success was the unlock the company needed to scale to new heights and continue to drive the brand forward towards its goal of becoming a household name.
