Who We Are:

Thrive Causemetics is Bigger Than Beauty™: an independent, female-owned beauty brand creating high-performance, vegan cosmetics.

Together, we prioritize a strong work ethic in a positive, supportive environment where people are passionate about making a difference.

Who We Are Looking For:

We are seeking an entry-level Supply Chain Coordinator to support our purchasing and inventory management activities. This role will assist the supply chain team in processing purchase orders, tracking shipments, and maintaining inventory records.

What You Will Be Doing:

Purchase Order Execution: Create and manage POs, WOs, TOs, and Item Receipts in NetSuite, ensuring accuracy and timely processing
Open Order Management: Own weekly Open Order Report meetings with suppliers to ensure orders are accurate, on-time, and in full for in-line business and new launches. Ensure Netsuite is updated weekly with expected ship and delivery dates.
Production Tracking: Manage the timing of purchase orders, track production, and ensure on-time delivery of inbound materials and finished goods
Risk Mitigation: Identify and mitigate production or material delays before they impact the business, escalating as needed
Inventory Reconciliation: Manage inventory reconciliation at contract manufacturers (CMs) and drive resolution of discrepancies
Excess Inventory Management: Monitor and mitigate excess inventory at CMs to reduce carrying costs and waste
Expedition Analysis: Conduct air freight and expedition analysis, managing expedition options with packaging and CM suppliers to improve production lead times
Lead Time Improvement: Partner with suppliers to continuously improve production lead times and optimize delivery timing
Cost Negotiations: Support and conduct cost negotiations with suppliers to secure favorable terms
BOM Management: Process BOM revisions and communicate revisions clearly and promptly to suppliers
Invoice Resolution: Research and resolve invoice discrepancies in partnership with finance and suppliers
Cross-Functional Communication: Deliver weekly inventory risk updates to cross-functional teams, providing clear visibility into supply status and potential disruptions

What Will Make You Stand Out:

2+ years of experience in supply chain, procurement, planning, or purchasing, preferably within the beauty, personal care, or consumer products industry
Hands-on experience creating POs, WOs, TOs, and Item Receipts in NetSuite (or a comparable ERP)
Experience working directly with contract manufacturers and packaging suppliers
Strong organizational skills and attention to detail, with the ability to manage multiple orders and priorities simultaneously
Working knowledge of inventory reconciliation, BOMs, and purchase order lifecycle management
Experience with freight, expedition, and lead-time analysis a plus
Comfortable surfacing risks early and communicating clearly with both suppliers and internal cross-functional partners
Proficiency in Excel and supply chain / ERP systems to track, analyze, and report on order and inventory status

What We Do

We’re Changing the Beauty Industry for Good. Thrive Causemetics was born out of a friendship. Makeup artist and product developer, Karissa Bodnar, lost her dear friend Kristy to cancer at just 24 years old. Kristy’s compassionate and vivacious spirit inspired Karissa to establish Thrive Causemetics, a beauty brand and philosophy that goes beyond skin deep by empowering women. Thrive Causemetics is Bigger Than Beauty™️: For every product you purchase, we donate to help a woman thrive. We believe changing the world starts with a single ingredient, and that’s why we create vegan, 100% cruelty-free formulas containing proven ingredients without the use of parabens or sulfates. All of our high-performance cosmetics are developed at Thrive Causemetics Lab—we control every step of the product development process, and a large part of it involves you.
