Saltbox makes the hardest parts of running a small online business simple. Our workspaces bring together flexible warehouse suites, offices, and hands-on logistics support, all designed to help eCommerce entrepreneurs scale with confidence. Our members run businesses across Fashion & Apparel, Health & Beauty, Electronics, Household Goods, and more. When you join Saltbox, you're not just joining a company, you're helping real small business owners in your own backyard succeed.
Saltbox is growing: new locations are opening, new programs are rolling out, and new accounts need to be set up right. The Field Operations Manager is the hands-on operator we send in to make those things happen on the ground.
You'll spend roughly half your time embedded in Saltbox markets: implementing new accounts, opening new locations, running operational resets, and training the teams who keep it all going. The other half you'll spend turning what worked into playbooks and training the rest of the network can run. Your job is to execute what's new, account implementations, location openings, operational resets, and leave behind teams and systems strong enough that they don't need you anymore.
This is the first time Saltbox has hired this role, so there's no playbook waiting for you. You'll write it. You'll do the work first, on the floor, alongside the team, then turn what worked into the standard everyone else runs. If you want a real say in how a role, and a growing network, take shape, this is that seat.
What the job looks like
One week you're on a warehouse floor in Atlanta setting up a new account alongside the local team. The next you're home, turning what you learned into a playbook every market can run. You'll travel roughly 50% of the time, working shoulder to shoulder with Market Leaders and Location Managers while you're on the ground. Your remote weeks are for building: writing SOPs, coaching teams over video, and checking whether what you rolled out last month actually stuck.
