Summary

About the Role

Are you the kind of person who lives to get things done—on time, no matter what? Do you thrive under pressure, love live music, and want to work with a team that supports some of the biggest touring artists in the world?

We’re Absolute Merch, a boutique artist merchandising company based in Orange County. We work with some of the most impactful global touring artists in the alternative music space—think Coachella, Lollapalooza, Warped Tour, and beyond. Though we operate at a high level, we’re a tight, independent team doing highly custom, highly creative work for artists on the rise and at the top.

We’re hiring a Logistics Manager to own the delivery side of our business—getting merch from our warehouse to the artist’s tour stop on time, every time. You’ll coordinate with freight providers, airport cargo, couriers, and production to make sure deliveries happen seamlessly. And if things don’t go to plan (as they often don’t in live music)—you’ll jump in, figure it out, and make it right.

You’ll Thrive In This Role If You:

  • Love having full ownership of your lane—start to finish
  • Are confident coordinating multiple shipments at once (air, LTL, courier, local pickups)
  • Are cool under pressure and love problem-solving
  • Have worked in logistics, operations, or production (no strict year requirement)
  • Understand how important it is that artists have their merch on time for a show
  • Are detail-obsessed, communicative, and able to move fast
  • Like working in Asana or similar systems to stay organized

What You’ll Do

  • Oversee touring merch deliveries for artists, ensuring timely arrival at festivals, shows, and venues
  • Manage vendor pickups, courier scheduling, airport handoffs, and last-mile delivery
  • Work closely with our production team and in-house driver
  • Maintain accurate documentation and shipping records
  • Step in to solve urgent delivery issues—including after-hours or weekends, when needed
  • Track costs and work with accounting to close loops
  • Keep internal teams aligned using Asana task/project tracking

Schedule & Compensation

  • Full-time: Monday–Friday, 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM PT
  • Some after-hours or weekend flexibility expected for time-sensitive tour issues
  • Salary: $68,000–$80,000
  • Benefits: Full health, dental, vision, 401(k), PTO

Why Absolute Merch?

Because you’ll be doing real work that matters. Artists need merch to thrive on the road—and your role makes that possible. You’ll work alongside a talented team in a creative space, helping deliver the goods (literally) for some of the most exciting names in music today.
