Inventory Coordinator (Backend) · Remote (Philippines preferred, but open to qualified candidates elsewhere), 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM China/Manila Time
Own the inventory behind 11,000 units sold every day
A mid-level Inventory Coordinator role at a high-volume e-commerce brand with a China factory and a warehouse partner. You keep the stock sheet accurate seven days a week, flag any size under 7 days of stock the same day, and report straight to the founder. Fully remote, 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM China/Manila time.
Working with the best 7-9 figure brands
Our client sells over 11,000 units a day, and the whole operation runs off one inventory Google Sheet: the factory updates it, the system reads it, the website shows it. When that sheet is wrong, the brand sells sizes it does not have or hides sizes it does, and it costs money every hour.

- Fully remote, 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM China/Manila time.
- Direct reporting line to the founder, with no layers in between.

What you'll do
- Own the inventory sheet and make sure the factory updates it every day.
- Check every colour and size for missing, low or negative stock.
- Flag sizes below 7 days of stock the same day; report sizes below 14 days weekly.
- Confirm website stock matches the sheet and escalate sync failures immediately.
- Track every purchase order from cutting to shipping to arrival, with quantity and ETA.
- Chase the China factory and warehouse partner on WeChat until you get usable answers.

Questions people ask
- Why is the company not named?
- This is a confidential search. You will learn exactly who the business is once you reach the interview stage.
- Can I apply from outside the Philippines?
- Yes. The Philippines is preferred, but qualified candidates elsewhere are welcome if you can work 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM China/Manila time.
- Do I need to speak Mandarin?
- No. You need short, direct, simple English and the patience to follow up with factory contacts who may have limited English. Mandarin is a nice to have.
- Is this just data entry?
- No. You own the accuracy of the data, spot problems early and chase them to resolution so the founder never has to check behind you.
If you take stock accuracy personally, this role is yours to own.
