Job description

• Develop, implement, and maintain Engineered Labor Standards (ELS) across various DC departments (Receiving, Picking, Packing, Shipping).
• Conduct time and motion studies, work sampling, and root-cause analysis to ensure labor metrics remain fair, accurate, and highly competitive.
• Manage and optimize the Labor Management System (LMS), ensuring accurate data flow and actionable reporting for DC leadership.

Process & Best Practice Optimization

• Partner with DC Operations and Logistics managers to identify inefficiencies, eliminate waste, and implement Lean/Six Sigma methodologies.
• Improve cost, service, capacity, and safety
• Design and optimize facility layouts, racking configurations, and material handling equipment (MHE) integration using AutoCAD to maximize throughput and space utilization.
• Develop and monitor Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and "Best Practices," ensuring they are effectively trained and adopted by floor associates.
• Optimize inventory slotting strategies to reduce travel time and improve ergonomic safety for order selectors.

Analytics & Project Management

• Monitor daily/weekly KPIs (units per hour, cost per unit, dock-to-stock time) and build visual dashboards to highlight performance trends.
• Lead capital expenditure (CapEx) projects from justification and ROI analysis through to execution and post-launch auditing.
• Evaluate, test and implement new technologies to modernize warehouse capabilities and improve workflows
• Support outbound logistics optimization, including load planning, trailer utilization, and routing efficiency analyses.

Working Conditions & Travel

• Travel Up to 75%: Because our network is our backbone, this role requires regular travel to Orgill’s eight full-service distribution centers across North America (including locations in UT, WV, TX, ID, NY, MO, GA, and Canada). You will conduct on-site time studies, oversee CapEx project rollouts, and collaborate directly with local DC leadership.
