Remote E-commerce Supply Chain Manager
Orders slip. Suppliers miss windows. Warehouses end up with too much of one thing and none of another. We're hiring a Remote E-commerce Supply Chain Manager to catch that before it turns into a customer complaint — someone who can run global logistics, keep inventory honest, and manage the vendor relationships that actually determine whether an order ships on time. The role pays $180,000 a year.
Why the Company Needs This Role
Procurement, fulfillment, and leadership don't always talk to each other as much as they should, and that's usually where things fall apart — a forecast nobody updated, a vendor issue nobody flagged upstream. This person sits in the middle of that gap. Part of the job is fixing problems after they show up. A bigger part is noticing the pattern early enough that they don't happen twice.
What the Job Actually Involves
- Shape the supply chain strategy for an e-commerce operation, then check whether it holds up under real order volume.
- Handle inventory planning and demand forecasting so that fulfillment centers aren't caught short or left with excess.
- Negotiate with suppliers and logistics providers, and keep a working record of who actually delivers.
- Run order fulfillment and returns, and look for places to trim shipping cost without slowing anything down.
- Find the inefficiencies nobody's gotten around to fixing yet, and use automation or ERP tools to close them.
- Track compliance risk across international trade and supplier reliability, with a real contingency plan ready before it's needed.
- Stay in regular contact with finance, procurement, and sales so supply chain decisions don't happen in isolation.
What You'll Need to Bring
- Education: Bachelor's degree, minimum.
- Experience: 7+ years in supply chain management. E-commerce background is strongly preferred.
- A history of managing logistics, vendors, and inventory at real scale — remote operations experience is a plus.
- Working knowledge of ERP systems and the automation tools most modern supply chains run on.
- Negotiation skills backed by data, not just instinct.
- Comfort leading a team you may never meet in person.
What Moves You to the Top of the Pile
None of this is required. It just helps.
- Hands-on use of AI-driven tools for forecasting or logistics planning.
- Familiarity with cross-border trade rules and customs compliance.
- A contingency plan you've actually had to use — and it worked.
How This Gets Judged
Nobody's tracking meeting attendance here. What counts is whether stock numbers reflect reality, whether suppliers deliver what they said they would, and whether shipping costs trend in the right direction over a quarter. And when something does go wrong — a late shipment, a supplier that drops the ball — the real test isn't whether it happened. It's how fast the fix kicks in.
Working Remotely, Not Just Working Alone
This is a fully remote role, but it's not an afterthought — the team actually functions this way day-to-day. People looking at listings on
Naukri Mitra sometimes wonder whether remote supply chain roles still offer real cross-departmental access. This one does. You'll be working directly with procurement, finance, and sales, not filing requests and waiting. Weekly check-ins keep everyone pointed in the same direction, and the schedule bends around whatever actually needs attention that week.
Pay and What Comes With It
Beyond the $180,000 base salary and performance incentives, the role includes:
- Health, dental, and vision coverage.
- A retirement plan with employer contributions.
- Paid time off, holidays, and wellness programs you're actually expected to use.
- Full flexibility on where and how you structure your workday.
Where This Can Lead
As the company grows, this role tends to grow with it — larger regions, bigger vendor portfolios, eventually a team of your own to run. You'll also get early exposure to where the field is heading, including AI-assisted forecasting tools that are changing how a lot of this work gets done.
Who Actually Fits Here
This role suits someone who's already spent years untangling supply chain problems and doesn't need a script to know what to do next. You'll need to be self-directed enough to run a global operation without someone checking in daily, organized enough to keep a dozen moving parts straight at once, and clear enough as a communicator that a remote team never feels like it's guessing.
