• 3PL / Vendor Management: Establish frameworks for evaluating, onboarding, and governing Third-Party Logistics (3PL) partners, transporters, and custom clearing agents.
• Team Leadership: Directly manage, mentor, and build a high-performing team of 20-25 supply chain and logistics professionals.
• Process Automation & Systems: Drive the adoption of advanced Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), Logistics Management Systems (LMS), and ERP inventory modules to automate workflows.
• Budget & Cost Ownership: Manage the total logistics and warehousing cost centers, driving initiatives to reduce freight cost-per-unit, transit damages, and storage overheads.
• Compliance & Safety: Maintain 100% statutory, tax (GST/E-way bills), and safety compliance across all storage facilities and transit operations.

Qualifications & Requirements

• Education: Bachelor's degree (B.E./B.Tech) in Engineering or a related field.
• Post-Graduation: MBA in Supply Chain, Logistics, or Operations is highly preferred.
• Systems Expertise: Deep experience working with enterprise ERP systems (SAP/Oracle) and integrated WMS/LMS software.

Key Competencies

• Master-level expertise in inventory modeling, safety stock management, and distribution resource planning (DRP).
• Strong negotiation and contract management skills with large scale 3PL and transport vendors.
• Sharp analytical acumen to turn complex logistics data into actionable cost-saving strategies.
• Solid experience handling the unique distribution challenges of the consumer appliances space (fragile handling, volume sizing, and high seasonal peaks).

• Enterprise Ownership: Complete autonomy to shape the physical storage and distribution roadmap for a scaling brand.
• C-Suite Track: High-impact visibility, reporting into the senior operations leadership team with a clear line of sight to corporate objectives.
