We provide customers with high-quality bedding through our brand Bare Home. As a leading textile retail company, we source premium products from key regions including China, India, Pakistan, and Turkey. Our commitment to excellence has earned us a reputation as an industry leader in sustainable and ethical textile sourcing.

What sets us apart is our entrepreneurial, collaborative environment where team members can quickly see their ideas transform into action. At Bare Home, you'll experience the satisfaction of ownership over projects, working alongside friendly, dedicated colleagues in a fast-paced setting where no two days are the same.

Position Overview :

We are seeking a strategic, hands-on Logistics Operations Manager to serve as the right-hand to our Logistics & Operations Director. As we experience 30% year-over-year growth and expand our warehouse footprint by 100,000+ square feet, you'll play a critical role in scaling our logistics infrastructure while driving operational excellence.

This role is perfect for an experienced logistics professional with 5+ years in international shipping who can balance strategic thinking with tactical execution. You'll manage container flows from China, India, Pakistan, and Turkey, optimize Amazon fulfillment operations (65% of our business), negotiate with 3PLs and carriers, and make data-driven decisions that directly impact our bottom line. If you're excited about touching every aspect of logistics operations in a fast-paced e-commerce environment where your contributions make an immediate difference, this is your opportunity.

• Analyze transportation costs across ocean freight, trucking, and 3PL services to identify savings opportunities

What Makes You Perfect for This Role :

You're a logistics professional who gets energized by solving complex supply chain puzzles—whether that's optimizing container flows from four countries, negotiating better carrier rates, or troubleshooting a customs delay. You're equally comfortable analyzing spreadsheets as you are jumping on the phone with a freight forwarder. The idea of managing international shipments while optimizing Amazon fulfillment doesn't intimidate you—it excites you.

You thrive in fast-paced environments where logistics is the backbone of success. When problems arise, you're the person who jumps into action with solutions. You love seeing your cost-saving initiatives directly impact the bottom line, and you're ready to roll up your sleeves and take ownership in a collaborative team where no two days are the same. Most importantly, you want to grow with one of Minnesota's fastest-growing companies where your expertise in international shipping, customs, and transportation operations will be valued and utilized every single day.
