Job description

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. 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

• Experience in consumer goods, sustainability, or manufacturing
• Familiarity with 3PL management and freight logistics
• APICS CPIM/CSCP or equivalent certification
• Experience at a scaling startup or small team
