This role tracks service levels ensuring expectations are met and KPIs are achieved.

Hybrid (3 days in office at the Atlanta Digital Hub, 2 days remote per week)

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Develop and execute the CSA Logistics operational excellence roadmap and annual continuous improvement portfolio.
  • Standardize tier management, standard operating procedures (SOPs), scorecards, process controls, and daily performance cadences across multi-site distribution centers.
  • Lead multi-site productivity, throughput, inventory optimization, cycle-time reduction, and cost-per-unit improvements across the Americas logistics network.
  • Quantify operational improvement opportunities, develop financial business cases, and validate realized hard-dollar and cost-avoidance benefits with Finance.
  • Coordinate and align DC, Transportation, SIOP, Quality, IT, and business-unit stakeholders to eliminate operational friction and streamline end-to-end execution.
  • Build continuous improvement capability and problem-solving culture across site management and frontline teams using Lean, Six Sigma, Kaizen events, and root-cause analysis (DMAIC, 8D, 5-Why).
  • Establish, track, and maintain key performance indicators (KPIs) including units per labor hour, year-over-year labor efficiency gains, milestone delivery, and standard work audit compliance.
  • Conduct regular operational reviews with regional site leadership to evaluate scorecard metrics, audit process controls, and sustain realized gains.
  • Effectively communicate both internally and cross-functionally metric dashboards, status changes, risk mitigations, and strategic optimization opportunities.

Minimum Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Operations, Supply Chain, Engineering, or Business Management
  • 8+ years of progressive operational excellence, continuous improvement, or multi-site supply chain and logistics leadership experience.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Deep expertise in Lean methodologies, Six Sigma tools, standard work deployment, value stream mapping, and root-cause problem solving in warehousing, distribution, or transportation environments.

  • Lean Six Sigma Black Belt, Master Black Belt, or Project Management Professional (PMP) certification preferred.
  • Master of Business Administration (MBA) or advanced degree in Supply Chain or Engineering a plus.
  • Advanced analytical approach to solving complex operational challenges, balancing risk and financial reward using both hard and soft skills.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
