GORUCK•Jacksonville, FL
•Onsite

About The Position

The Business Manager will build and run GORUCK’s Barbwire seconds program and SCARS shop. The role is based at the LVK warehouse in downtown Jacksonville, Florida, with regular time at headquarters in Jacksonville Beach, and reports to the VP of Operations. The manager is responsible for gear that the 3PL sets aside as unfit for stock under the Returns SOP, as well as repairs and trade-ins, through sale, shipment, or salvage. Success is measured by clearing return bins, Barbwire revenue and margin, and getting repairs shipped the same week they arrive. The manager reviews returns set aside by the 3PL and determines whether to clean and restock them, rework them for Barbwire, customize them, strip them for parts, or donate them. They operate the Barbwire store, including product photography, listings, pricing within agreed guardrails, shipping, planning drops with Marketing, and maintaining a five-star customer experience. They also identify ways to grow the supply of gear for second-life offerings, including patches, embroidery, one-of-a-kind builds, and Built by SCARS. The role leads the SCARS shop, setting weekly priorities for the SCARS Lead and technicians across repairs, Barbwire rework, customizations, and Built by SCARS. Responsibilities include hiring, scheduling, productivity tracking, timecard approval, and accountability, as well as helping with shop work when the queue backs up. The manager builds the SCARS budget and tracks revenue, labor, materials, and margin for repairs, Barbwire, and Built by SCARS; reports monthly to the VP of Operations and Finance; owns quality control and restock standards; and provides Product with data-backed feedback on product failures. The manager monitors use and costs of the SCARS Lifetime Guarantee and recommends changes to its wording or framework to the VP of Operations. They purchase parts, materials, and supplies within budget, maintain machines, and use Claude or other AI tools to reduce manual work in listings, tracking, and reporting. They work with the technology team to move effective processes into systems for scan tracking, listings, and financial reporting, and coordinate connections between the shop and HQ for Built by SCARS rotations, events, photo shoots, and workouts.
