Operations Lead
30 hours per week | Remote (UK hours) | £30,000 per year pro rata
We're hiring an operations lead to run the day-to-day business. If you love systems, detail, and working with the business owner, this is for you.
The opportunityWe're looking for an Operations Lead to take ownership of the day-to-day running of SnoozeShade.
At its core, this is a project management role with wide scope, covering stock, suppliers, financial awareness, retailer relationships, team coordination, and building systems that keep everything running smoothly.
In our small, fast-moving team, no two days are the same. You'll keep the essentials running: from stock and customer support to retailer relationships and accurate financials, while stepping in to whatever else the week brings.
You'll be working closely with Cara, who invented SnoozeShade and is a very hands-on person. You'll take over operational responsibilities currently handled by her, so she can focus on product, growth, and strategy. You'll also bring ideas, spot opportunities, and improve how things are done.
A note on seasonality: SnoozeShade is a seasonal business. April through July is our peak season - we're fully focused on managing demand, fulfilling orders, and coordinating logistics. The rest of the year is dedicated to planning, system improvements, and getting everything in place for the next seasonal spike. This means your workload and priorities shift throughout the year.
