About Young Goose
Young Goose is a science-driven skincare brand at the intersection of longevity, regenerative aesthetics, and performance biology. We develop advanced skincare products designed to support skin health and longevity at the cellular level.
As we continue to grow our product catalog and supply chain operations, we are looking for an experienced, highly organized Production Coordinator II to help ensure our products are produced accurately, efficiently, and on schedule.
About the Role
The Production Coordinator II is responsible for coordinating the day-to-day production activities for an assigned group of products within the Young Goose catalog.
This role manages production timelines, vendor communication, packaging and component readiness, documentation, purchase order coordination, and production follow-through from planning through delivery of finished goods.
The Production Coordinator II reports directly to the Supply Chain Manager and works alongside another Production Coordinator who manages a different portfolio of products. While the coordinators work collaboratively and support shared production processes, each is expected to maintain clear ownership and visibility over their assigned products.
This role is best suited for someone with prior production, supply chain, manufacturing, or CPG experience who can independently manage multiple moving pieces, proactively identify risks, and maintain accurate production records.
