What you should be good at

• Minimum five years of logistics, shipping, receiving, or supply chain experience, with prior leadership or supervisory responsibility preferred.

• Strong computer skills, including Excel, PowerPoint, SharePoint, OneDrive, and SAP ERP systems, with the ability to use data to support inventory control and logistics decisions.
• Strong understanding of warehouse flow, inventory accuracy, cycle count discipline, storage practices, and efficient use of warehouse space.
• Strong organization, follow-up, communication, and problem‑solving skills in a fast‑moving operations environment.
• Ability to lead a team, set priorities, hold standards, and maintain a safe, clean, and efficient workplace.
• Ability to pass a pre‑employment drug test and ATF background check

What you can look forward to

• Leadership growth: Build and lead a capable logistics team while improving daily execution, customer support, and compliance performance.
