Job Description & Requirements
Skratch Labs: Supply Chain Manager
I am someone who thrives in a fast paced, ever changing environment. I demonstrate grit and embrace accountability. I am someone who can juggle multiple tasks simultaneously. I need little direction in my day-to-day job but will raise my hand if I need help. I enjoy problem solving, analytics, and take pride in my accuracy. I play as hard as I work, and love the way of life in Colorado’s Front Range where the surrounding trails, rivers and mountains are my playground.
Company Overview: Skratch Labs is an outdoor company on the cutting edge of athlete nutrition, founded by two pro cycling veterans who started mixing performance drinks in paint buckets at McGuckin Hardware over 7 years ago. Since then, we’ve built an amazing following of impassioned athletes in the US and Europe and we’re growing fast. We believe food and drink is just better when made from scratch; we also believe that no matter where we find ourselves in life, it’s never to late to start from scratch. We use our heads and our hearts in everything we do. Our goal is to help people be better. We work together, we are real, we perform, and we are empathetic. If athletes and our story inspire you, and you think you’d thrive in an office full of dogs, bicycle posters, shenanigans, hard work, and occasional lunchtime Knock-Out (basketball) game, this could be the place for you.
