Role Overview

This is a hands-on, execution-focused role that supports the day-to-day e-commerce operations of FunkyFunYou. Core responsibilities include order processing, shipping coordination, customer service, inventory tracking, and backend admin work.

We’re looking for someone who is fast, reliable, proactive, and comfortable with repetitive operational tasks. This is not a creative or design-focused role, but if you have additional creative skills and are genuinely interested in contributing beyond operations, there may be future opportunities.

Key Responsibilities

- Manage Shopify backend (orders, product updates, basic maintenance)
- Oversee packing coordination and shipping logistics
- Monitor inventory, manage restocking reminders
- Handle customer enquiries (friendly tone, both via email and messaging)
- Liaise with suppliers in Chinese and/or English
- Support workshop preparation when needed (material sorting, event setup)
- Assist with general administrative tasks to keep operations running smoothly

This is a “get-things-done” role. Not “wait-for-instructions” role.

What We’re Looking For

✔ Fast learner & hands-on mindset

✔ Executes without overthinking – solves problems instead of escalating them

✔ Good attention to detail (packing accuracy, communication tone, documentation)

✔ Emotionally stable – doesn’t resist repetitive tasks

✔ Takes responsibility when mistakes happen (“I’ll fix it” attitude)

✔ Experience in small business / e-commerce is highly valued

Bonus (Not Required, Just Nice-to-Have)

⚪ Basic design (Canva / Adobe)

⚪ Basic video editing or social content layout

⚪ Interest in creative entrepreneurship or handmade industry

⚪ Prior workshop or event experience





⚪ Previous experience in small business / creative team environment

If you have these skills, you may contribute to creative projects —but please note this is not a design or content role by default.

This Role Is NOT For You If…

❌ You only want to work on creative/design tasks

❌ You resist repetitive or logistics-related work

❌ You wait for full instructions instead of figuring things out

❌ You need emotional reassurance to work efficiently

❌ You see yourself as “just here for tasks” and not part of the build

❌ You prefer corporate-style structure over fast-paced entrepreneurship

Work Structure & Pay

- 2–3 days per week to start (option to grow based on capability)
- In office in Blackburn studio, some flexibility/remote once trained
- $25-35/hour, depending on experience
- Opportunity to expand scope/responsibility based on performance
