About the role

Half of the role is support - inbox, calendar, errands, follow-ups. The other half is operations - inventory, orders, deliveries, suppliers, events and the systems that tie them together.

• Coordinate deliveries and pickups with distributors, retailers and logistics partners

• Keep order, invoice and receipt records organized for bookkeeping

• Attend Plenty events if needed - in-store tastings, demos, markets, trade shows and pop-ups: prep supplies, set up, staff the booth, sample product and pack down

• Spot what's slowing us down and suggest better processes or tools

• Run errands: sample drop-offs, pickups if required
