YOU COME WITH
- 4+ years of progressive leadership experience in a high-volume, fast-paced distribution centre or warehouse environment
- A proven track record of concurrently managing both high-volume Inbound and Outbound operations
- Exceptional data literacy and analytical skills, with the ability to interpret complex warehouse metrics, manage labour management systems (LMS) and adjust staffing models in real time
- Proven change and crisis-management skills, with the ability to navigate peak season surges, system transitions and supply chain disruptions with high emotional intelligence and decisive action
- Strategic communication skills and strong interpersonal abilities to effectively align front-line floor workers with executive leadership
