Operations Associate

Supply Chain Analyst

Founded in 2014, Linjer is a design studio with a goal of making it easier for people to invest in long-lasting, quality products. ("Linjer" means "lines" in Norwegian -- we have Scandinavian roots.) We started Linjer because we were fed up with choosing between unsustainable fast fashion products and overpriced luxury goods. We love quality but don't love overpaying for logos, so we convinced the suppliers of luxury brands to work with us and produce products of our own design. We sell only on our website, which allows us to sell our products (jewelry, bags and watches) for a fraction of the price of traditional luxury brands. We love minimalist design and want to make our customers feel great, all while minimizing our harm to the environment.

We are seeking a Supply Chain Analyst to support our inventory forecasting and procurement to ensure that we are optimally managing our cash as our business doubles in size year on year.

The position is full-time in our Hong Kong office.
