Position Summary
The Operations Manager oversees day-to-day store and production operations while leading the hands-on product-making process to ensure it reflects Plainview's craftsmanship and quality standards.

Key Responsibilities
  • Oversee all store operations and daily processes, ensuring inventory integrity and a seamless fulfillment process.
  • Manage staffing, scheduling, and overall store workflow.
  • Partner with the Retail Sales Manager on employee evaluation and development.
  • Oversee payroll management.
  • Maintain strong daily knowledge of the business through regular reporting, and review key information with the Retail Sales Manager to keep Leadership informed.
  • Manage buyer and vendor relationships for raw materials, packaging, equipment, and manufacturing supplies.
  • Monitor production efficiency and quality, driving continuous process improvements.
  • Lead the Plainview product-making process, batching, curing, and finishing, ensuring it reflects the care, craftsmanship, and small-batch quality that define the brand.
  • Source and steward high-quality, natural ingredients, balancing efficiency with the intentional, sometimes slower processes that protect product integrity.
  • Host and lead tours of the soap-making process for customers and groups.
  • Other duties as assigned.

Requirements
  • 3-5+ years of experience in operations management, ideally within retail, manufacturing, or a small-batch/artisan production environment.
  • Demonstrated experience managing staff, including scheduling, performance evaluation, and development.
  • Experience with vendor and supplier management, including sourcing and negotiating for raw materials or supplies.
  • Strong understanding of inventory management and fulfillment operations.
  • Excellent organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple workstreams and shifting priorities.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Proficiency with standard business software (e.g., Microsoft Office/Google Workspace); experience with POS or inventory systems a plus.
