Afternoon Walmart Packing Jobs (NOW HIRING)

We're hiring an Operations Manager to run the day-to-day of our warehouse and multi-channel sales operation. This is a true number-two role: you'll own production, purchasing, fulfillment, inventory, vendor relationships, sales channel performance (Amazon, Walmart, Shopify ops), and team management — freeing the owner to focus on marketing, strategy, and product development.

We need someone entrepreneurial, organized, and hard-working. Someone who can walk the warehouse floor in the morning, run a production plan at midday, place a $40K PO with a key supplier in the afternoon, and close the day reviewing FBA inbound shipments and do it all without supervision. If you've been a strong second-in-command at a growing CPG or e-commerce business and you're ready to run the whole operation, this is the seat.

What You'll Own

• Warehouse & Production: Daily production planning, ingredient pouching, kit assembly, shipping, and quality control across our three-tier production model.
• Purchasing & Forecasting: Vendor management, PO placement, demand forecasting, and staying ahead of stockouts across hundreds of SKUs.
• Sales Channels: Amazon FBA/FBM inbound shipments, Walmart WFS replenishment, Shopify inventory management, and channel-level stock balancing.
• Team Management: Direct management of the production, shipping, and warehouse staff — roughly 8-12 people including hourly and salaried team members.
• HR: Hiring, onboarding, attendance management, performance discussions, and disciplinary actions in coordination with ownership.
• Light Accounting: Vendor bill coding, expense approvals, and supporting month-end close.
• Reporting: Weekly KPI rollups to ownership covering production, inventory, channel performance, and team metrics.

What You Bring

Must-haves:

• 5+ years of hands-on operations experience in CPG, e-commerce, or manufacturing
• Direct experience working on a warehouse or production floor — this is not a desk-only job
• Demonstrated Shopify operations experience (inventory, order management, listings)
• Proven track record managing a team of 5+ direct reports
• Strong Excel skills and comfort working with data to make decisions
• Vendor management and purchasing experience, including demand forecasting
• Comfortable working with AI tools to help with organization, forecasting, etc (Claude)

Nice-to-haves:

• Amazon Seller Central experience (FBA inbound, replenishment)
• Experience in homebrewing, craft beverage, or specialty food/ingredient categories
• Demonstrated Walmart Marketplace / WFS experience
• ShipStation or similar shipping platform experience
• Familiarity with BOM management and light ERP work
• Bilingual English/Spanish

What you are:

• Entrepreneurial. You think like an owner and you act without being asked.
• Organized. You build systems and you follow through.
• Direct. You can have hard conversations with vendors and team members without flinching.
• Hands-on. You're not above pulling a pallet, packing a kit, or driving to a supplier.

Why This Role

• Real autonomy and ownership of an entire operation
• Direct working relationship with the owner (no corporate layers)
• A profitable, established business (not a venture-backed gamble)
• The chance to put your fingerprints on a company you can stay with for the long haul

• Who are you and why are you interested in this role?
• What's the biggest operation you've run, and what made it challenging?

3. A short written response (half a page is plenty) telling us about a time you inherited an operation that wasn't running well, what you found, what you changed, and the result.
