About Us:
Founded in 2007 by Mr. Anuj Bhatia, Value One bridges the gap between the aspirations of modern Indian consumers and the availability of innovative solutions. By leveraging technology and operational excellence, the company delivers seamless and reliable products and services. Today, Value One has grown into a $400+ million diversified ecosystem encompassing eCommerce, supply chain, distribution, product development, and brand building, driving sustainable and profitable growth.
We are in process of launching a modern home and lifestyle brand built with a sharp focus on design-led, consumer-first products for the evolving Indian home.

Every product is developed with a deep understanding of customer preferences, combining global design inspiration with strong domestic sourcing capabilities.

You will own the sourcing journey—from identifying and evaluating suppliers to driving negotiations, managing product development timelines and ensuring timely execution. Beyond procurement, you'll play an important role in shaping our product portfolio by bringing in market insights, identifying sourcing opportunities and collaborating cross-functionally to bring new collections to market.

- Coordinate with internal teams for sample approvals, order placement, and dispatch schedules.
- Monitor order status, ensure timely delivery, and troubleshoot delays or quality concerns.
- Co-ordinate with QC team to drive cost benchmarking, quality audits, and capacity assessments for vendor selection. Also, coordinate quality and compliance checks, third-party inspections, and packaging specs.
- Track market trends and innovations across categories to help identify product opportunities.
- Maintain accurate documentation for orders, contracts, and logistics coordination.
- Manage vendor relationships and performance metrics.
The Ideal Candidate:
- 3–6 years of strong sourcing experience across categories (especially home) for e-commerce, retail or private label business.
- Strong vendor network and hands-on experience in sourcing.
- Proven negotiation skills and commercial acumen.
- Exposure to sourcing from global suppliers (especially China), preferred.
