About Kulcher Kitchen

https://kulcher.co.uk/

Kulcher Kitchen is a fast-growing, culturally driven food brand currently stocked in Tesco and launching with Ocado.

We create bold, plant-based ready meals inspired by global flavours — Caribbean, Indian, and beyond — built from real travel, real kitchens, and real culture. We sit at the intersection of food, culture, music, and lifestyle, and we’re scaling quickly.

This is not a corporate FMCG role. This is a founder-led brand building something modern, disruptive, and meaningful — and we’re looking for an Operations Manager to help us scale smartly.

The Role

As Operations Manager, you’ll own and improve the operational backbone of Kulcher Kitchen — fully remote.

You’ll work closely with the founder to manage systems, suppliers, production partners, and logistics, ensuring the business runs smoothly as we grow with major retailers.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys ownership, autonomy, and problem-solving, and doesn’t need hand-holding to make things happen.

Key Responsibilities

Manage day-to-day operations across production, supply chain, and logistics
Own and improve processes, systems, and SOPs
Liaise with manufacturers, suppliers, and co-packers to ensure quality, timelines, and consistency
Oversee forecasting, stock control, and supply planning
Support operational scale-up for national retail (Tesco, Ocado, and beyond)
Ensure compliance with food safety, hygiene, and operational standards
Identify inefficiencies and implement practical, scalable solutions
Act as a key problem-solver when challenges arise
Provide operational insight and structure to support continued growth
Who We’re Looking For

You’re organised, proactive, and comfortable operating in a fast-moving environment.

You’ll be a great fit if you:

Have experience in operations, supply chain, manufacturing, or food/FMCG
Are confident managing suppliers and external partners remotely
Can balance big-picture thinking with hands-on execution
Take ownership and don’t wait to be told what to fix
Stay calm under pressure and enjoy solving real-world problems
Experience in chilled food, ready meals, or national retail supply chains is a strong plus — but mindset and capability matter most.

Why Join Kulcher Kitchen?

Work with a nationally listed, fast-growing food brand
Fully remote role with flexibility and autonomy
Work directly with the founder and influence real decisions
Help build systems that scale, rather than inherit broken ones
Opportunity to grow with the business as it expands
This is a role for someone who wants to build, not just maintain.
