• Define end-to-end movement procedures from factory loading to final onsite placement, including required equipment and protection measures.
• Recommend packaging, staging, and loading methods for each product type, with special attention to cabinetry protection and later-stage delivery needs.
• Assess and recommend internal factory requirements to support outbound logistics, including module sizing, door and clearance dimensions, staging layouts, and loading bay configurations.
• Develop detailed delivery sequencing plans to ensure efficient jobsite logistics and minimize onsite storage or handling.
• Optimize internal material flow leading to outbound shipping, ensuring efficient transition from production to transport loading.
• Recommend internal handling and loading procedures to reduce product handling time, minimize damage risk, and match outbound loading methods.
• Coordinate between different product flows inside the plant to align with outbound transport scheduling and delivery sequencing.
• Other duties as required
  

What you bring

• A Bachelor’s Degree and/or MBA in Supply Chain Management, Business Administration, Finance, or a related field
