Global Sourcing Coordinator (6 months contract)

We’re looking for a Global Sourcing Coordinator who thrives in a fast-paced, creative, and execution-driven environment. In this role, you’ll take ownership of sourcing, supplier management, and end-to-end order execution for custom hardgoods and softgoods products—including items like polyresin, bobbleheads, and plush.

You’ll collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to ensure products are developed, produced, and delivered on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards. This is a highly impactful role that blends supplier strategy, cost optimization, and hands-on project execution.

This isn’t just sourcing—it’s about bringing ideas to life.
You’ll be at the center of transforming creative concepts into tangible, high-impact merchandise that customers can experience and remember. Every project involves problem-solving, collaboration, and precision—but the reward is seeing the final product out in the real world.
