About the Role
Lane is looking for a detail-oriented Supply Operations Manager to maintain an accurate, current, and buyer-ready inventory of cars available through marketplace listings, marketing leads, and other incoming sources. You will consolidate supply information, confirm vehicle availability with sellers, match available cars against buyer requirements, and coordinate timely inspections and photographs. Your goal will be to improve demand-to-supply match rates and ensure suitable cars are not lost because of delayed follow-ups, outdated information, or inspection coordination gaps.

Maintain supply coverage against buyer demand

• Organise supply by budget, make/model, transmission, fuel type, location, and other relevant buyer preferences.
