We’re innovative, launching eight more SKUs in retail this month (these will be our HERO SKUs), plus six more in eComm, supported by a strong awareness and trial program. Our heritage-acquired brand is Ross Chocolate®, established 30 years ago as a healthy alternative chocolate, listed in most of the larger Retailers in Canada.

The Junior Operations Manager is a hands-on role responsible for three core priorities: maintaining accurate finished-product inventory and an effective shipping and receiving process; improving manufacturing efficiency; and leading continuous-improvement projects. Working closely with the Director of Operations/Factory and cross-functional teams, this individual will use our ERP system (Fishbowl) and related systems to strengthen operational controls,



data accuracy, workflow visibility and execution.

Key Responsibilities · Own finished-product inventory accuracy and availability, including ERP transactions, cycle counts, variance investigation, root-cause analysis and corrective actions.

· Manage the end-to-end shipping and receiving process, ensuring accurate documentation, timely ERP updates, proper staging and storage, and prompt resolution of shortages, damage and other discrepancies.

· Improve manufacturing efficiency by monitoring throughput, capacity, labour utilization, downtime, waste and process constraints, and by implementing practical corrective actions.

· Lead continuous-improvement projects from scoping through implementation and sustainment, with clear milestones, stakeholder coordination, risk management and measurable results.

· Serve as the hands-on ERP subject-matter expert, preferably in Fishbowl, maintaining master data, troubleshooting transactions, improving workflows, validating system changes and training users.

· Maintain operational KPIs and reporting for inventory accuracy, on-time shipping, receiving performance, production efficiency, waste and improvement-project outcomes.

· Partner with Production, Quality, Purchasing, Sales and Finance to align inventory, production priorities,



customer commitments and operational controls.

· Promote safe, standardized and well-documented work practices across manufacturing, warehouse, shipping and receiving activities.

Qualifications and Competencies · Bachelor’s degree in business administration, operations, supply chain, logistics or a related discipline.

· Three to five years of progressive experience in manufacturing operations, inventory control, warehousing, shipping and receiving, or supply chain.

· Demonstrated hands-on expertise with ERP, inventory-management and order-management systems; direct Fishbowl experience is strongly preferred.

· PMP certification or equivalent project-management experience successfully leading cross-functional operational or continuous-improvement projects.

· Working knowledge of manufacturing processes, production planning, inventory controls, shipping documentation and warehouse practices.

· Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to interpret operational data, identify root causes and translate findings into action.

· Highly organized and detail-oriented, with strong follow-through and the ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment.

· Clear communicator and collaborative operator who is comfortable working on the floor, training users and coordinating across departments.

· Proactive, accountable and improvement-minded, with the judgement and initiative to take on broader ownership and a next-level challenge.
