We prioritize investing in our team members, offering clear pathways for advancement from entry-level roles to management positions through comprehensive training and mentorship programs.

Key Responsibilities

  • Network Optimization: Design and implement transportation routes, distribution strategies, and inventory flows to reduce transit times and improve efficiency.
  • Team Leadership: Hire, train, and mentor facility general managers, supervisors and dispatchers, fostering a high-performance, safety-first work environment. Recruit independent contract carriers.
  • Data analytics: Lead analytics initiatives that use KPIs, dashboards, and reporting tools to improve logistics performance and reduce costs.
  • Compliance & Safety: Ensure all operations comply with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations.
  • Performance Tracking: Analyze KPIs, transportation costs, delivery performance, and network efficiency to identify opportunities for cost reduction and process excellence.

Position Requirements

  • Education: Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Logistics, Business, or a related field preferred.
  • Experience: 5 to 7+ years of progressive logistics or supply chain management experience, including multi-site or regional oversight.
  • Technical Skills: Proficiency with WMS (Warehouse Management Systems), TMS (Transportation Management Systems), and data analytics tools.
  • Soft Skills: Strong financial acumen, conflict resolution skills, and the ability to make fast, data-driven decisions during disruptions.

Compensation & Work Environment

  • Salary Range: $90,000 - $110,000, depending on experience; plus, benefits and potential for bonus.
  • Environment: Hybrid role with responsibilities split between remote leadership and on-site warehouse operations. Frequent travel throughout the assigned territory is required.
