If you're a logistics leader who knows how to motivate teams, resolve issues on the fly, and keep things rolling no matter what, you’re in the right place.

About QCD :

Quality Custom Distribution (QCD) is the largest division of Golden State Foods (GSF) , a global foodservice leader founded in 1947. Since launching in 2006, QCD has grown into a global leader in custom distribution, with operations across the U.S. Headquartered in Frisco, Texas, we deliver to some of the most iconic brands in the industry.

We invest in people because we believe opportunity is what you make of it. When you show up consistently, work with integrity, and lead by example, there’s room to grow. Just ask some of our leaders - many started as warehouse workers and grew into the roles they hold today. At QCD, where you start is just the beginning.

In This Role, You’ll :

  • Develops, audits, and manages the budget and operations costs to ensure efficient operations. (10%) Obtains, analyzes, and recommends equipment specifications, quotes, and procurement for essential department equipment to ensure effective use of operating funds. (5%)
  • Performs other related and assigned duties as necessary

What You’ll Bring :

  • 3+ years of transportation or food distribution experience, including supervisory roles
  • Working knowledge of DOT regulations, driver safety, routing software, and logistics reporting
  • Strong leadership and conflict-resolution skills - you know how to lead through complexity
  • Ability to communicate clearly with internal teams, drivers, and external partners
  • Work in a temperature-controlled warehouse  - dry, chill, and freezer zones
  • Bachelor’s degree preferred (but not required); management or operations-related fields a plus
  • Experience working in unionized environments strongly preferred
  • Ability to travel as needed and work onsite in a 24 / 7 operation
  • The Schedule & Setting :

  • Full-time, on-site supervisory role in a temperature-controlled warehouse
  • Supports a 24 / 7 operation with flexibility required for evenings, weekends, and holidays as needed
  • Leads a large-scale transportation team focused on safety, reliability, and service
  • Pay & Benefits :

  • 401(k), paid holidays, vacation, and more
  • Company-provided uniforms and work shoes
  • Why Join Us :

    We’re not just in the business of distribution - we’re in the business of development. More than 67% of our team has been with us for 3+ years, and that’s no accident. We recognize hustle, reward consistency, and promote from within. When you show up and put in the work, we’ve got your back. And when you’re ready to lead, we’re ready to support.

    At QCD, our people-first culture is grounded in simple values : treat others the way you want to be treated, hold yourself to a high standard, and always do the right thing. We believe in shared success - because when our people thrive, our customers do too.
