eCommerce Placement specializes in placing Fulfillment, Logistics, and Supply Chain talent at eCommerce brands and retailers across the US, Canada, and UK. Contingency-based. No placement, no fee.
The Role
Fulfillment and logistics are the operational backbone of every eCommerce business. From directing 3PL relationships and warehouse operations to managing supply chain complexity across multiple channels, finding the right operations leader requires a recruiter who understands the eCommerce operational landscape.
Our Approach
We work on contingency, meaning you pay our fee only when we successfully place a candidate. No retainer. No upfront cost. Our fee is 20% of the placed candidate's first-year base salary, invoiced on their start date.
Every placement includes a replacement guarantee. If a hire does not work out within the guarantee period, we conduct a new search at no additional cost.

eCommerce logistics is distinct from traditional supply chain. The speed requirements, the last-mile complexity, and the omnichannel demands are unique to digital commerce.
eCommerce fulfillment involves distinct challenges: last-mile delivery optimization, returns management, 3PL and 4PL relationships, DTC vs. B2B fulfillment, and the operational demands of peak seasons like Q4 and Prime Day. We screen for eCommerce-specific operations experience.
A fulfillment leader at a pure DTC brand has a different profile than one managing omnichannel fulfillment across DTC, wholesale, and marketplace. We define the right profile based on your specific channel mix and operational complexity before sourcing.
The best eCommerce operations candidates combine process expertise with technology fluency — WMS platforms, OMS systems, carrier APIs, and supply chain analytics tools. We assess both dimensions in every search.
