​​ Looking for Philippines-based candidates

Job Role: General Manager / Senior Operations Manager (Ecomm)

Compensation range: $3,000 AUD - $4,000 AUD / Monthly

Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement

Work Schedule: This role is expected to align with the AU business hours (approx. 9 AM - 5 PM AEST or 4 PM - 11 PM PHT, Monday to Friday) for collaboration, but as a contractor, you’ll have flexibility in how you manage your time.

Who We Are: At Hunt St , we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home.
Required Skills and Qualifications:
Experience

- Solid experience in operations management, general management, logistics, or inventory management — ideally including international logistics/import-export exposure.

- A background that spans a variety of roles, with demonstrated ability to step up into a broad, senior generalist position.

- Experience working remotely for an international/offshore employer is highly regarded.

- Experience across a D2C and B2B mix is attractive — comfortable operating across both consumer-facing and business-facing sides of a business. Ecomm is very attractive.

- Prior B2B sales experience is attractive — e.g. negotiating and closing large/bulk orders with retailers, distributors, or wholesale partners (this is not a retail sales role, but the role does carry a sales element around securing larger wholesale/bulk supply deals).

- Direct experience managing international incoming stock, product, and freight — including ownership of timelines from origin through to delivery.

- Experience with local demand profiling and stock forecasting, with the ability to plan and manage the gap between manufacture time and actual arrival of stock, often spanning several months.

Technical & Software Skills
Critical

- Number one priority: genuine, hands-on ability to integrate AI into everyday operations — building automations and workflow integrations (e.g. with Gemini and Claude), and continuously adapting these as new models, tools, and methods become available, to keep making processes more efficient and productive.

- Fluency in Google Workspace.

- Solid experience in operations and inventory management, including international logistics and import/export exposure.

- Demonstrated people management, team leadership, and delegation experience.

- Project/task management ownership — comfortable running the team's workflow through a platform such as ClickUp or similar.

- Strong e-commerce fluency — hands-on experience operating on e-commerce sales platforms, with a solid working understanding of how e-commerce operations function end-to-end.

- General understanding of customs clearance and import/export terminology.

- Experience with accounting software (e.g. Xero, QuickBooks, or similar) and a basic grasp of bookkeeping principles — profit & loss, expenses, margins, and how to read standard financial reports.

- Microsoft 365 experience.

Nice to Have

- Shopify experience, including familiarity with Shopify apps/plugins.

- Familiarity with Microsoft Clarity and Klaviyo.

- Hands-on technical knowledge of SEO/SEM/email marketing tools and tactics (beyond general literacy).

Language & Communication

- Fully fluent, professional-level English — written and spoken — including the ability to read emotional tone and intent in both formats, given this role owns customer escalations.

- Comfortable and confident on the phone — proactively calling suppliers, factories, logistics providers, and partners rather than waiting on email replies.

Attitude & Working Style

- Highly proactive self-starter — the founders should never need to chase this person for updates or progress.

- Comfortable operating with autonomy and taking ownership of outcomes, while keeping stakeholde
