Customer Supply Chain Manager ID - 3084

About the company:

 

Hi. We're Impossible Foods, and we make meat, dairy and fish from plants. Our mission is to make the global food system truly sustainable by eliminating the need to make food from animals. Why? Animal agriculture uses a tremendous amount of the world's natural resources. In 2016, we launched our first product, the Impossible™ Burger. It's delicious, nutritious, and made using but a small fraction of the land, water and energy required to make meat from a cow.

 

 

Impossible Foods was founded to transform the global food system and reduce the impact of climate change by making the world’s most delicious, nutritious, and sustainable meat, fish, and dairy — from plants. We’re building a rockstar team of brilliant, collaborative, mission-driven individuals who take pride in using their diverse skills to contribute to saving our planet. 

Want to join the movement? You can help us solve the most urgent, important challenge facing the world today (and have fun doing it).

The Supply chain manager will work with our strategic partner(s) to ensure excellence in product supply and collaborate in growing the business. Key responsibilities will include demand planning, inventory management, purchase order execution, monitoring of the day to day business, and customer facing interaction. This individual will be integral in navigating real time business issues, interpreting data, and suggesting real time solutions. This position will work remotely out of Bentonville, AR and will report to the Director of Sales.
