What This Role Really Is
This is not a “keep things running” operations role.
We’re looking for someone who can build, fix, and scale the operational backbone of Afina. Someone who sees inefficiencies and attacks them. Someone who negotiates harder, moves faster, and takes full ownership of outcomes.
Afina is growing fast across our own website and Amazon. Behind that growth is a complex system of suppliers, freight, inventory, and 3PL execution — and that’s where you come in.
This is a remote position.
What You’ll Own
End-to-End Operations
- You own the supply chain from factory to customer
- Forecast demand, plan inventory, and ensure we never stock out (or overstock)
Supplier & Cost Control
- Negotiate aggressively with international suppliers on pricing, MOQs, and terms
- Continuously find ways to improve margins
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Logistics & Freight
- Manage freight (air/sea), compare quotes, and make cost vs speed decisions
- Own relationships with freight forwarders and 3PLs
3PL & Fulfillment
- Ensure orders go out fast, accurately, and cost-effectively
- Fix issues before they become problems
Amazon + DTC Operations
- Keep inventory synced and flowing across Amazon and our website
- Prevent operational bottlenecks that impact revenue
Systems & Scale
- Build SOPs, dashboards, and processes that scale
- Turn chaos into structure without slowing the business down
Who You Are
- You’ve already done this before in an e-commerce company (Shopify + Amazon + 3PL is your world)
- You understand international suppliers, freight, and inventory planning deeply
- You are extremely detail-oriented, but you don’t get stuck in analysis
- You’re a negotiator — you don’t accept the first price
- You move fast, take ownership, and don’t wait to be told what to do
- You care about profit, efficiency, and execution
