Role

The Production and Logistics Assistant plays a key role in supporting the design and production lifecycle at Variety Hour.

  • Work closely with the E-commerce Manager to ensure accurate inventory tracking, product uploads and correct stock locations.
  • Conduct regular (1–2 times per week) stock transfers and drop-offs between the warehouse and the retail store.

Operations & Studio Management

  • Coordinate with contractors including cleaners, trades, and delivery services.
  • Manage procurement of office and studio supplies.
  • Support in small studio administration tasks (e.g. staff birthdays, christmas party, workplace culture initiatives).
