About This Role:

Crusoe Energy is seeking an accomplished and proactive Logistics Lead to take a strategic leadership role in scheduling, arranging, and coordinating complex logistics operations across the company, focusing heavily on inbound freight and outbound deployment. This role is critical for optimizing our transportation efficiency, owning carrier relationships, and providing hands-on leadership across all logistics functions, including the Packaging/Wrapping Department. The ideal candidate possesses a strong background in transportation, supply chain management, and thrives in an agile environment where cross-collaboration is key to operational excellence. This is a full-time position.

What You’ll Be Working On

• Strategic Dispatch & Transportation Management: Schedule, coordinate, and optimize the dispatch of equipment, materials, and resources for various operational projects.

You will implement and enforce packaging best practices (e.g., proper dunnage, standardized wrapping, labeling accuracy) and track packaging KPIs (e.g., packaging accuracy, pack-out time, defect rates).
• Leadership & Team Management: Serve in a leadership role overseeing all logistics functions, including shipping, receiving, and inbound freight coordination through final delivery. You will manage personnel scheduling, performance, and development, promoting accountability, a safety-first workplace, and compliance with DOT regulations.
• Cross-Functional Forecasting & Collaboration: Collaborate extensively with Engineering, Procurement, Quality, On-Site Crews, and 3rd Party Vendors to forecast material and equipment needs and coordinate complex deployment schedules. You will also work with the Quality team on material requiring inspection, approval, or rejection before packaging or shipment.
• Process Improvement & Operational Excellence: Analyze logistics, shipping, and packaging data to identify opportunities for improvement in cost, throughput, and freight efficiency. You will champion best practices (e.g., standardized pallet configurations, 5S, FIFO/FEFO) and lead or participate in Kaizen events and continuous-improvement projects to optimize workflows.
