Job Description

About Us

JP Ecommerce has been named one of the top-ten, fastest growing businesses in Minnesota by Inc. 5000 for FOUR consecutive years! We provide customers with high-quality bedding through our brand Bare Home. As a leading textile retail company, we source premium products from key regions including China, India, Pakistan, and Turkey, and we're proud to manufacture our mattress line right here in the USA.

We're not just growing—we're exploding! With 20-30% year-over-year growth and a warehouse expansion from 100,000 to 300,000 square feet underway, this is an incredible time to join our team. This isn't a corporate silo where you'll be stuck in a cubicle farm. You'll work elbow-to-elbow with colleagues across departments, gaining soup-to-nuts understanding of how a thriving e-commerce business operates. We have team members who started as warehouse associates five years ago and now run their own departments—that could be your story too.

The Role

We're seeking a detail-oriented, Excel-savvy Supply Chain Associate who thrives on turning massive datasets into actionable insights. If you get excited about a perfectly executed VLOOKUP or a pivot table that tells a compelling story, this role is for you.

This is a hands-on, data-intensive position where you'll be the backbone of our logistics operations. You'll track everything from purchase orders and container flows to SKU allocation and inventory movement across multiple channels including Amazon FBA, our website, and international markets (UK, Canada, and beyond).

What makes this role unique:

You'll gain exposure to the complete international supply chain cycle in a fast-paced, growing company where your contributions directly impact our bottom line. You'll work alongside our Supply Analyst and Buyer, learning forecasting, container optimization, 3PL coordination, and cross-border logistics—all while building the Excel and analytical skills that will set you up for long-term career success.

Key Responsibilities

Data Management & Analysis (Your Bread and Butter)

  • Master complex Excel functions daily: VLOOKUP, INDEX-MATCH, pivot tables, and advanced formulas to manage large datasets
  • Build and maintain tracking systems for purchase orders, container assignments, and SKU allocation
  • Generate actionable reports on inventory movement, container status, and supply chain performance
  • Analyze data across multiple systems to identify discrepancies and ensure accuracy
  • Create dashboards and visualizations to communicate supply chain metrics to leadership

Logistics Coordination

  • Support buyers and logistics analysts with daily operations and priority management
  • Track international container flows from origin countries (China, India, Pakistan, Turkey) through delivery
  • Coordinate with 3PL partners on receiving schedules and inventory placement
  • Monitor inventory movement across sales channels (Amazon FBA, DTC, B2B, international)
  • Assist in building container loads and optimizing shipment configurations
  • Track SKUs across multiple warehouses and distribution centers

System Management

  • Maintain accurate records in SellerCloud and NetSuite (training provided)
  • Ensure data integrity across all supply chain systems
  • Generate regular performance reports and KPI tracking
  • Monitor inventory locations, status updates, and system accuracy
  • Support forecasting activities by extracting and organizing data from forecasting tools

Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Work directly with Buyers, Supply Analyst, Warehouse Operations, and Customer Service teams
  • Participate in warehouse visits to understand physical operations (occasional)
  • Contribute to process improvement initiatives
  • Support peak season planning and execution

Required Qualifications

Education

  • Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Operations Management, Business Analytics, Logistics, or related field preferred
  • Associate's degree with 2-3 years of relevant supply chain experience will be considered

Experience

  • 1-3 years of experience in supply chain operations, logistics, or related field
  • Internships in international sourcing, Amazon fulfillment, 3PL operations, or warehouse management highly valued
  • Experience with cross-border shipping or international logistics a plus

Technical Skills (Critical!)

  • Advanced Excel proficiency is non-negotiable: VLOOKUP and INDEX-MATCH functions (you should be able to use these in your sleep)
  • Pivot tables and pivot charts for data analysis
  • Complex formulas and conditional formatting
  • Ability to manipulate and analyze large datasets (10,000+ rows)
  • Data validation and error-checking capabilities
  • Strong attention to detail and accuracy in data management
  • Ability to learn new systems quickly (SellerCloud and NetSuite experience preferred but not required)
  • Comfortable with technology and adapting to new software platforms

Core Competencies

  • Analytical mindset with problem-solving abilities
  • Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple priorities
  • Excellent communication skills (written and verbal)
  • Self-starter who can work independently and collaboratively
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, dynamic environment
  • Process-oriented with continuous improvement mindset

Why Go Bare?

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive hourly rate: $24-28/hour based on experience and skills
  • Comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) retirement plan with company match
  • Paid time off and holidays

Career Growth

  • Rapid advancement opportunities in a company growing 20-30% annually
  • Exposure to all aspects of supply chain and business operations
  • Mentorship from experienced supply chain professionals
  • Cross-training opportunities across departments
  • Real examples: Team members who started in entry-level roles now manage departments

Work Environment

  • Collaborative, non-siloed team culture
  • Work directly with leadership and decision-makers
  • Opportunity to make immediate impact on business operations
  • Modern office environment with occasional warehouse visits
  • Standard business hours with some flexibility during peak seasons

Please submit:

  • Your resume highlighting relevant supply chain and Excel experience
  • A brief cover letter explaining why you're excited about this opportunity
  • Examples of how you've used Excel in previous roles (optional but impressive!)
  • Email to : Wyeargan@barehome.com or Mfreeman@barehome.com

Pro tip: If you've built any supply chain tracking tools, dashboards, or complex Excel workbooks, mention them! We want to see your data skills in action.
