Job description

Propane Ninja is seeking an experienced Export Manager to take ownership of the execution and coordination of our growing international business, with a strong concentration of activity throughout the Caribbean.

This is a hands‑on functional management role focused on international logistics, customer relationships, execution, and cross‑functional coordination. You’ll connect customers, suppliers, carriers, freight forwarders, internal teams, and leadership to keep complex international transactions moving from customer requirement through successful delivery.

This is not a traditional sales role and does not initially include direct employee management. We’re looking for an experienced international operator who can create visibility, solve problems, and keep a lot of moving pieces aligned.
