[Hiring] Head of Inventory Management @Whizz

Role Description

Whizz rents e-bikes to delivery couriers in New York on a monthly subscription. We have our own service shops around the city, a main warehouse in New Jersey, and we run the whole operation on an ERP system we built ourselves. Bikes break, we fix them, and that means a constant flow of spare parts through our warehouses.

Right now nobody is fully in charge of that flow. Purchasing, stock counts and warehouse work are split between the mechanics, the ops team, logistics and IT. We want one person to take the inventory function and run it properly.

You will work directly with the CEO and the operations director.

• Get stock records to match reality, both at the Jersey warehouse and in the city shops.
• Set up regular counts and keep them honest.
• Set min and max levels for parts and plan purchasing around them.
• Write down how the warehouse actually works: receiving, transfers, write-offs, stock counts.
• Launch our used parts program.
• Manage the inventory team.
• Work with our developers on the warehouse part of our ERP.

Qualifications

• 3+ years in inventory or warehouse management.
• Experience in spare parts, automotive, service or e-commerce.
• Experience working with an ERP or a WMS.
• Confident with Excel or Google Sheets.
• Experience writing processes and getting teams to actually use them.
• Use of AI tools in everyday work.
• Fluent in English and Russian.
• At least 4 hours of your working day overlapping with New York.

Requirements

• Stock records match the shelves, with a monthly check that proves it.
• Minimum and maximum levels set for all key parts, and no more weekly emergencies over missing parts.
• Rebuilt parts going back into service, and fewer new parts bought.

Benefits

• Fully remote, from any country outside the US.
• Full-time, long-term.
• Competitive salary depending on experience, plus a bonus tied to results.
