Overview
20four7VA is seeking offshore independent contractors to deliver remote services to clients worldwide, with a primary focus on developed markets such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia.

The company imports products primarily from Asia and utilizes Shopify, ShipBob, and Settle to manage inventory and fulfillment operations. The goal of this role is to remove the day-to-day logistics and inventory management responsibilities from ownership while improving visibility, organization, and operational efficiency.
This is not a customer service role. The company already has a dedicated customer service VA. This position is focused entirely on backend logistics, inventory management, shipment tracking, and operational coordination.
The objective of each engagement is to assist the client in improving business efficiency, enhancing service delivery, or supporting operational functions through high-quality, task-specific services rendered by a qualified contractor.

Systems & Workflow Management
Work within Shopify, ShipBob, Settle, and related systems
