About the Job

The Senior Manager, Transportation – CSA leads the domestic transportation operating model for Carrier's CSA Logistics network, balancing service reliability, planning performance, carrier accountability, and freight productivity. Reporting to the Director, Logistics & Transportation, this role owns daily execution governance and drives strategic network optimization across North America.

This leader directs the transportation planning team and execution coordinators, steering initiatives in full truckload (FTL) utilization, dynamic load consolidation, avoidable less-than-truckload (LTL) reduction, and cost-to-serve improvements. Working collaboratively with SIOP, Distribution Center (DC) Operations, Strategic Sourcing/Procurement, and business unit leadership, the Senior Manager establishes carrier scorecards, enforces SLA compliance, enhances Transportation Management System (TMS) data integrity, and champions continuous improvement across the logistics ecosystem.

Key Responsibilities

  • Transportation Execution & Planning Governance: Lead, mentor, and develop a high-performing team of transportation planning professionals and coordinators managing day-to-day freight execution across multi-site distribution networks.
  • Network Optimization & Productivity: Drive aggressive FTL utilization (targeting 60%+ based on network/site mix), load consolidation programs, avoidable LTL elimination, and measurable cost-to-serve efficiencies.
  • Carrier Relationship & Performance Management: Own carrier scorecard reviews, tender acceptance rates, on-time pickup/delivery performance, and carrier no-show governance. Partner with Procurement to optimize dedicated and brokerage carrier capacity.

  • Cross-Functional Alignment: Partner strategically with SIOP, DC Operations, Quality, and BU leadership to shape network distribution flow, inventory allocation, and freight lead-time strategies.
  • Digital Logistics & TMS Enhancement: Enhance TMS workflow standardization, end-to-end shipment visibility, automated milestone tracking completeness, and digital metrics dashboards.
  • Continuous Improvement & Standard Work: Implement standardized operating procedures (SOPs), tier accountability cadences, and root-cause problem solving (DMAIC, 5-Why) to sustain freight savings and operational gains.

Minimum Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Transportation, Logistics, Supply Chain Management, Engineering, or business discipline.
  • 8+ years of progressive transportation, freight operations, or domestic logistics management experience.
  • 5+ years of direct people leadership experience managing logistics planners, dispatchers, or execution analysts.
  • 2+ expertise with Enterprise Transportation Management Systems (TMS) such as SAP TM, Oracle OTM, Blue Yonder/JDA, or MercuryGate.

  • Extensive background in mode conversion (LTL to multi-stop FTL), private/dedicated fleet operations, and carrier rate structure negotiation.
  • Strong analytical aptitude with business intelligence tools (Tableau, Power BI) and data-driven executive presentations.
  • Willingness to travel domestically (approximately 15–25%) to regional distribution centers and logistics operational hubs.

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.
