Supply Chain & Operations Specialist

Company

Sixone’s mission is to enable a world where blended plastics products can be circularly recycled back into existing supply chains instead of being sent to landfill. Sixone is a leading technology startup company developing advanced recycling technologies for blended plastics and plastic-based products. The technology applies process digitalization and advanced analytics to build a recycling system to enable efficient plastics recycling. Our goal is to revolutionize the economics of recycled materials through innovative processing and materials technologies.

Sixone is looking for a Supply Chain & Operations Specialist to own the execution of our core operational systems and workflows. This role reports directly to the Senior Manager of Strategy & Operations and is responsible for bringing operational plans to life - managing our ERP, supply chain, logistics, and inventory functions day-to-day and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

You'll be the person who makes things happen. The Senior Manager sets the strategy and priorities; you own the execution, keep stakeholders aligned, and build the processes that make our operations reliable and scalable. This is a great fit for someone who's highly organized, comfortable working across teams, and energized by turning plans into results.

What You'll Own

ERP Management

• Day-to-day ownership of Sixone's ERP system - data accuracy, team adoption, and ongoing maintenance

• Ensure the ERP reflects current workflows and serves as the operational source of truth

• Flag issues and surface improvement opportunities to the Senior Manager of Strategy & Operations

Supply Chain & Logistics

• Execute on supply chain and logistics plans in coordination with vendors and internal stakeholders

• Monitor inbound and outbound shipments, track lead times, and proactively communicate delays

• Manage logistics partner relationships and hold them accountable to SLAs

• Consolidate supply chain responsibilities currently distributed across the team into one accountable function

Inventory Management

• Maintain accurate, real-time inventory records

• Implement and uphold processes to minimize discrepancies, write-offs, and stock-outs

• Coordinate with relevant team members on replenishment cycles and demand inputs

Feedstock Management

• Own the end-to-end lifecycle of incoming feedstock - from receiving and storage through to labelling, tracking, and conversion into TPA

• Maintain accurate records of feedstock volumes, locations, and status at every stage of the process

• Coordinate outbound shipments of TPA to polymerization partners and other recipients, ensuring documentation and handoffs are airtight

Product Tracking & Quality Records

• Track and regularly document all TPA produced - quantities, destinations, quality metrics, and any other relevant product information

• Maintain a clear, accessible record of where product is sent and ensure all quality assurance data is captured and filed

• Build and maintain reporting that gives the business real-time visibility into output and product status

Production & Business Development Support

• Partner with the production team to manage and maintain the production schedule, including tracking capacity and anticipated output on a regular cadence

• Proactively communicate feedstock needs and product output forecasts to the business development team so they can plan sales activity accordingly

• Flag supply or capacity constraints early to prevent downstream surprises across production and commercial teams

Cross-Functional Coordination

• Serve as the operational point of contact across teams working on supply chain, logistics, and inventory

• Identify workflow friction (e.g., data handoffs, recyclability testing processes) and work with the Senior Manager to resolve it

• Keep cross-functional workflows moving and stakeholders informed

What We're Looking For

• 3–5 years of experience in operations, supply chain, or a related function - ideally at a product-based company

• Experience working within an ERP system (NetSuite, Cin7, Fishbowl, or similar); ownership experience a strong plus

• A strong executor: you follow through, document what you build, and close loops

• Organized and detail-oriented - you catch things before they become problems

• A collaborative communicator who can work effectively across functions without direct authority

• Comfortable in a fast-moving environment where not everything is defined yet

• Based in Vancouver, BC or willing to relocate

Nice to Have
