What You'll Own
You'll run the floor.
Picking, packing, routing, dispatching — you're the one making sure it all clicks into place, shift after shift. You build the plan, you adjust it on the fly, and you make the call when priorities shift mid-shift.
You'll build the team.
Ops Leads and hourly associates look to you for real coaching, not just direction. You'll train people up, mentor them through the tough days, and run huddles and handoffs that actually keep everyone aligned.
You'll raise the bar.
SOPs aren't just paperwork here — you're the reason they stick. You'll keep an eye on accuracy, partner with site leadership on what could work better, and keep the warehouse running safe, clean, and organized.
You'll be the go-to.
When something breaks on the floor, you're first on the scene — and you know exactly when to solve it yourself and when to loop in the Site Lead or GM. You'll keep everyone in the loop, up and down the chain, without the noise.
What You Bring
- 3+ years running warehouse, fulfillment, or logistics operations — you know what a good shift looks like
- A track record of getting hourly teams to show up and perform, even when the pace doesn't let up
- Comfort with WMS tools, handheld scanners, and final mile dispatch — or a fast learner's confidence that you'll pick it up
- A high school diploma or equivalent
- The stamina for a shift that moves — lifting up to 50 lbs. and staying on your feet, because this job doesn't happen behind a desk
Compensation for this role is up to $70,000 and will be based upon leadership and operational experience.
What you’ll love about Odeko:
- Fast-paced environment and growth opportunities - plenty of room for you to directly impact the company and enhance your career!
- Competitive compensation, healthcare benefits, and opportunity for equity
- Other great perks - Full lists of benefits available upon request
Odeko is proud to be a diverse, equitable, and inclusive employer.

About this role
Odeko is looking for an Operations Manager to lead the warehouse floor at their Eliot, Maine facility, where you'd oversee picking, packing, routing, and dispatching for a company that supplies thousands of independent coffee shops and food establishments. You'd own the daily operations—building schedules, adjusting them in real time, and making calls when priorities shift. Beyond logistics, you'd build and mentor your team of Ops Leads and hourly associates, establish and enforce standard operating procedures, and serve as the first responder when problems arise on the floor.
This role suits someone with at least three years of warehouse, fulfillment, or logistics experience who has successfully managed hourly teams through high-paced environments. You should be comfortable with warehouse management systems and dispatch tools, or confident you can learn them quickly. The job is physically demanding—you'll be on your feet most of the shift, lifting up to 50 pounds regularly—and requires the stamina to keep up with a fast-moving operation. The position is full-time and onsite in Eliot, with compensation up to $70,000 based on your background, plus healthcare benefits and equity opportunities.
