Their expertise centers on the efficient movement of case- and pallet-level goods across a wide range of industries, including CPG, food and beverage, wholesale, and retail.

  • Support the integration and ongoing optimization of Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), automation technologies, and material handling equipment.
  • Lead or support the startup, commissioning, and continuous improvement of warehouse automation initiatives, including robotic systems, AS/RS, conveyors, sortation equipment, and goods-to-person technologies.
  • Analyze operational data and KPIs (e.g., throughput, inventory levels, order fulfillment) to recommend cost-saving initiatives and process enhancements.
  • Partner with operations, supply chain, and leadership teams to implement Lean, Six Sigma, and other continuous improvement methodologies.
  • Develop business cases for new equipment, automation, or layout changes, including cost-benefit analyses.
  • Ensure all designs and implementations comply with safety, ergonomics, and regulatory standards.
  • Support or lead projects related to warehouse expansions, relocations, and new technology integrations.
  • Track, monitor, and report on KPIs, project outcomes, and operational improvements.

What You’ll Need

  • High school diploma or equivalent required; associate’s or bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Logistics, Business, or a related field preferred.
  • Minimum of 5 years of experience in warehouse, distribution center, or logistics operations; experience in e-commerce or high-volume fulfillment environments is a plus.
  • Proficiency with AutoCAD or similar layout design software, along with strong data analysis skills using tools such as Excel or SQL.
  • Working knowledge of Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma (Green Belt or higher preferred), and continuous improvement practices.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and critical-thinking skills with the ability to interpret complex data sets.
  • Excellent communication and project management skills, with the ability to collaborate cross-functionally and present insights to stakeholders.
  • Familiarity with WMS, LMS, warehouse automation, and material handling equipment.
  • Comfort working in a fast-paced warehouse environment, including time spent on the operations floor.
