Job Description

About us

We're building The Love Project, a unique functional food brand, and we're looking for sharp, hungry people (pun intended) to join us at the ground floor as we go from 0 to 1 and beyond. We're not just another D2C company - years of R&D, innovative products, a brand personality that stands out, and serious levels of ambition with the chops. Think of us as David in a David vs. Goliath story.

Aptitude + attitude matter to us over credentials. We offer a workplace where you'll own things from day one that'd take a decade at a large company.

Responsibilities and Requirements

  • This is a hands-on role in a 01 startup environment. This role will own end-to-end operations and sourcing - from raw material planning, manufacturer coordination, perishable inventory tracking, warehouse management to fulfillment
  • The ideal candidate would have 58 yrs experience in FMCG/packaged food ops, which MUST include working with a small FMCG/food startup or a fast-growing D2C brand, where you've had to handle multiple parts of the ops yourself
  • This role is notsuited for candidates coming from highly structured, large-company supply chain roles - we're looking for someone who enjoys building systems from scratch and handling ambiguity.
  • Manage procurement, coordination with contract manufacturers and production planning
  • Solid experience handling perishable SKUs, MOQs & multi-location stock with batch tracking
  • Oversee warehouse management and fulfilment - organization, picking, packing, dispatching, returns handling
  • Can establish from scratch an ops tech stack (ERP/OMS): warehouse/3PL + systems (Zoho, Unicommerce/EasyEcom, etc.)
  • Can manage the complex replenishment cycles for Quick Commerce hubs (Blinkit, Instamart etc.)
  • Can establish strategic sourcing, own the BOM (Bill of Materials) and aggressively drive down unit costs

Notes:

  • Salary: Competitive and commensurate with your experience and the value you bring to the 0-to-1 journey
  • The Culture: We're a lean, high-trust team. No red tape, just high ownership and the chance to build a category-defining brand from scratch
  • Your educational background, identity, or where you went to school matters far less to us than your hunger, attitude and your ability to execute. If you're a builder, you belong
