At Alabama Outdoors, we’re serious about providing an incredible customer experience — and that starts with a well-run back-of-house operation.

We are looking for an organized, detail-oriented, and efficient Operations Manager to oversee all back-of-house responsibilities, including inventory accuracy, shipment processing, and supply needs.

This role is focused on operational excellence and provides only occasional, light support on the sales floor.

5. Maintain organization of all inventory and backstock storage areas.
6. Oversee daily replenishment of inventory from back stock to the sales floor.
7. Ensure returned products are processed, tagged, steamed, or folded and placed back on the floor or sent to the correct location.
8. Communicate inventory discrepancies to Store Support Manager, Buyers, Vendors, Accounts Payable, and Store Leadership as needed.
9. Oversee and communicate supply needs for the location.
10. Train and develop team members in all back-of-house, e-commerce, and shipment processing duties.
11. Provide light support to customers as needed when assisting on the sales floor.
