The posting

Position Summary

The Director of Logistics is responsible for the strategic and day-to-day leadership of the plant's internal logistics and warehouse operations. This role owns the physical design and layout of the warehouse, the transactional integrity of inventory movements (receiving, put-away, and goods issue accuracy), the flow of materials from the warehouse to production lines, and the transportation of products to our customers.

The Director will build, coach, and lead a high-performing multi-site team that reliably supports uninterrupted production.

This is a hands-on leadership role requiring a blend of operational discipline, systems/process expertise, and people management in a fast-paced industrial manufacturing environment.

Key Responsibilities

Warehouse Layout & Design • Design and continuously optimize the physical layout of the warehouse to maximize storage density, throughput, and safety, including racking configuration, slotting strategy, and flow paths. • Partner with Production, Engineering, and Safety teams to align warehouse layout with production line requirements and material presentation needs (e.g., point-of-use storage, line-side kitting areas). • Lead or oversee warehouse expansion, reconfiguration, or relocation projects as the business grows. Inventory Transactions & Systems Control • Own the accuracy and timeliness of all inventory transactions: receiving, put-away, goods issue, transfers, and returns within the D365 ERP system. • Establish and enforce standard operating procedures (SOPs) for each transaction type to ensure data integrity between physical inventory and system records. • Serve as the warehouse subject matter expert on the D365 ERP system, partnering with IT/Systems teams on enhancements, upgrades, and issue resolution. • Drive adoption of scanning, barcoding, or RFID technologies to improve transaction accuracy and reduce manual entry errors. • Develop and lead a cycle count program that achieves and sustains high inventory accuracy targets (99%+ accuracy), reducing reliance on disruptive full physical inventories. • Own key inventory KPIs and report performance to plant and operations leadership. Material Flow to Production • In coordination with Material Planning and Production teams, design and manage material replenishment strategies (kanban, min/max, pull systems) that ensure production lines never experience material shortages or line-down events. • Coordinate closely with Production Planning, Scheduling, and Manufacturing leadership to align material delivery with production schedules and takt time. • Optimize point-of-use delivery routes, staging areas, and line-side inventory levels to balance space, cost, and service level. • Lead root cause analysis and corrective action for any material flow disruptions affecting production. Transportation • Lead the arrangement of outbound freight and logistics to deliver on time to the customer. • Responsible for between-site shipping and logistics to ensure flow of materials to final assembly. Team Leadership • Lead, coach, and develop warehouse supervisors, leads, and associates across all shifts, building a culture of accountability, safety, and continuous improvement. • Establish staffing plans, shift schedules, and labor standards to meet production and shipping demands cost-effectively. • Conduct performance management, training, and development planning for the warehouse team. • Champion a strong safety culture, ensuring compliance with OSHA and company safety standards (forklift operation, material handling, ergonomics). • Apply Lean/Six Sigma principles (5S, standard work, value stream mapping) to drive measurable improvements in accuracy, throughput, cost, and safety. • Partner cross-functionally with Production, Quality, Purchasing/Procurement, Planning, and Engineering to support overall plant performance.

Qualifications

Required Qualifcaitons • Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Operations Management, Logistics, Business, or related field (or equivalent combination of education and experience). • 8+ years of progressive warehouse/materials management experience in a manufacturing environment, including 3+ years in a leadership role overseeing multiple supervisors or teams. • Demonstrated experience with warehouse layout design and reconfiguration projects. • Strong hands-on experience with ERP/WMS transactions (receiving, put-away, goods issue, cycle counting) — D365 experience strongly preferred. • Strong experience with implementing cycle count programs within a warehouse setting. • Experience supporting a production/manufacturing environment with kitting and line-side material delivery.

Preferred • APICS/ASCM certification (CPIM, CSCP) or similar. • Experience with automated material handling equipment or WMS implementations. • Experience in a production line manufacturing environment.

Core Competencies

  • Strategic Logistics & Warehouse Leadership
  • Inventory Management & Transactional Integrity
  • Warehouse Layout Design & Optimization
  • Material Flow & Production Support
  • Transportation & Distribution Management
  • ERP/WMS Systems Expertise (D365 Preferred)
  • Lean Manufacturing & Continuous Improvement

  • Data Analysis & Operational Decision Making
  • Cross-Functional Leadership & Collaboration
  • Team Development, Coaching & Performance Management
  • Project Management & Process Improvement
  • Operational Excellence & KPI Management
