Description

The Role

Remote, Contract, 20 to 25 hours per week. Openhouse is a New York-based business working on EST hours.

This seat sits between our factories and our clients. You’ll own the path a product takes from PO to delivery, and you’ll be the person the sales team comes to when they need a real answer about what’s possible. We’re looking for someone in the US or EU. You will have a direct report, a Purchasing & Sourcing agent based internationally. You manage the exceptions (solve the problems) when you are pulled in, as needed.

We’re looking for someone precise. Details are the job. A wrong date or a stale status in our system becomes a client problem downstream, and we don’t let that happen.

Pay Commensurate with experience.
