Logistics Manager — Own the Systems That Keep Our Company Moving

Are you a big-picture thinker who loves building efficient systems, optimizing operations, and keeping complex logistics running like a well-oiled machine? If so, you’ll thrive here.

We’re looking for a Logistics Manager who’s ready to take full ownership of our logistics, procurement, fleet, and facility operations. This is a high-impact role where your decisions shape how our entire company functions day-to-day.

If you enjoy designing smart workflows, negotiating with vendors, improving processes, and leading teams toward greater efficiency—this is the opportunity to make your mark.


As our Logistics Manager, you’ll be the strategic mind behind all things operations:

Logistics & Procurement
  • Build and lead company-wide logistics and procurement strategies
  • Own vendor relationships, agreements, equipment selection, and purchasing
  • Optimize warehouse design, layout, inventory flow, and cost-saving processes
  • Manage shared equipment, rental agreements, and inventory tracking systems
  • Oversee and maintain the logistics budget with a focus on efficiency
Fleet Management
  • Oversee acquisition, maintenance, and replacement of vehicles and trailers
  • Implement asset-tracking systems that boost visibility and reduce downtime
  • Ensure vehicles are properly set up, maintained, branded, and assigned
  • Manage fuel programs and service agreements
  • Drive fleet-related cost-savings and utilization improvements
Facility Operations
  • Ensure each facility supports operational performance and growth
  • Oversee maintenance, security, utilities, and safety compliance
  • Lead warehouse transitions, expansions, and relocations
  • Manage facility budgets and implement risk-mitigation plans

You’ll help create and drive KPIs such as:

  • Logistics cost savings and procurement efficiency
  • Fleet utilization, maintenance compliance, and cost-per-vehicle
  • Inventory accuracy, turnover, and restock performance
  • Space utilization and operational cost management
  • On-time staging, workflow improvements, and process optimization
     

You’re a proactive leader who enjoys solving problems, building systems, and bringing order to complexity. You have:

  • Experience in logistics, fleet, or operations management
  • Strong vendor-management and negotiation skills
  • A track record of improving processes and cutting costs
  • Excellent organizational and leadership ability
  • A love for building structures that help teams do their best work

This role gives you the unique opportunity to:

  • Build and refine the infrastructure that powers the entire company
  • Make strategic decisions with real influence and ownership
  • Work across multiple departments and see the impact of your work company-wide
  • Lead improvements that boost efficiency, reduce costs, and strengthen performance

If you're excited by the idea of elevating operations and creating systems that scale, we’d love to talk to you.
