  •  Foster a culture of accountability, safety, teamwork, and empowerment.
  • Inspire your team by leading by example, setting clear expectations, and recognizing high performance.
  • Develop future leaders by mentoring and growing internal talent.
 
  1. Customer & Market Focus:
  • Build strong relationships with customers through responsiveness, service excellence, and problem-solving.
  • Act as the face of the distribution center with a strong focus on customer experience and long-term partnerships.
  • Take a proactive approach to resolving customer concerns and ensuring a smooth delivery experience.
  • Work closely with the sales team to communicate and understand market pricing dynamics and customer concerns. 
Required Qualifications:
  • Minimum 3 years of warehouse or distribution center management experience.
  • Demonstrated success managing budgets, P&L statements, and logistics operations.
  • Proven ability to motivate, lead, and develop teams in a fast-paced, hands-on environment.
  • Strong interpersonal, verbal, and written communication skills — especially in customer-facing settings.
  • Experience working with external customers.
  • Mechanically inclined with working knowledge of hand and power tools.
  • College degree or equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • Valid driver’s license required.
Working Conditions:
  • Fast-paced, high-volume distribution environment.
  • Non-climate-controlled warehouse with frequent lifting (50–75 lbs.), standing, and manual labor.
  • Requires attention to detail, accuracy, and adaptability to shifting priorities.
What We’re Looking for:
  • A natural leader with a strong sense of ownership and pride in performance.
  • A self-starter who thrives in an environment where you’re empowered to make decisions.
  • A problem-solver and innovator who’s not afraid to challenge the status quo.
  • Someone who leads by example, communicates clearly, and builds strong teams and customer relationships.

If you're ready to take charge of a growing distribution center and thrive in an environment that rewards initiative, accountability, and leadership, we invite you to apply and grow with us.
