iJility
Olive Branch, MS Full Time
POSTED ON 11/6/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 12/5/2026

We are seeking experienced, results-driven General Managers to lead operations across our growing third-party logistics (3PL) network. This role is responsible for overall site performance, including safety, service, quality, cost management, productivity, and people leadership.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on operational leader with strong financial acumen, a track record of driving results, and the ability to build and develop high-performing teams in a fast-paced logistics environment. This position requires a leader who is comfortable spending significant time on the warehouse floor, engaging directly with operations, coaching employees, solving problems in real time, and driving execution through visible leadership.

This will involve start-up and launch operations, requiring the General Manager to play an active role in site implementation, process development, workforce ramp-up, customer onboarding, and establishing a strong operational culture from day one.

Key Responsibilities (Additions)

  • Lead start-up operations, including facility launches, process implementation, customer onboarding, and workforce ramp-up activities.
  • Develop site infrastructure, operational processes, reporting mechanisms, and performance standards during start-up phases.
  • Maintain a highly visible presence on the warehouse floor, working alongside managers and employees to drive performance, safety, and accountability.
  • Support operational execution as needed in a hands-on capacity to ensure customer commitments and business objectives are achieved.
  • Build and foster a culture of engagement, continuous improvement, and operational excellence from the ground up.

Leadership Profile (Additions)

The successful candidate will demonstrate:

  • A hands-on leadership style with a willingness to be actively involved in daily operations.
  • Experience leading greenfield, start-up, or rapidly growing logistics operations.
  • The ability to build teams, processes, and culture in dynamic and evolving environments.
  • Strong adaptability and resilience in ambiguous or fast-changing situations.

These additions clearly communicate that the role is not just strategic but requires a hands-on General Manager who can lead start-ups, build operations from the ground up, and be actively engaged on the warehouse floor with employees every day.
