Job description

Warehouse Distribution Transportation Team Leader

Fully On-Site

Warehouse Distribution, Transportation, & Logistics Team Lead isn’t just about movement — it’s about momentum. As the Shipping and Warehouse Supervisor, you will lead over 30 personnel across a multi-site warehouse operation, including finished goods facilities and a large raw materials distribution site. Your mission is to stabilize, modernize, and inspire. You’ll guide experienced teams through critical system upgrades, new procedures, and operational growth — all while keeping the human connection at the center of change.

Performance Objectives

• Oversee daily operations across 8 warehouse locations (7 finished goods, 1 raw materials), managing more than 30 team members across various shifts and functions.
• Drive adoption of new systems and workflows, including the rollout of SAP S/4HANA, ensuring team buy-in and hands-on support throughout implementation.
• Coach, mentor, and influence a team that includes many long-tenured employees — helping shift mindsets, build trust, and embrace change.
• Collaborate across shifts with site-based supervisors to ensure seamless execution, consistent standards, and 24/7 operational alignment.
• Own warehouse KPIs for shipping, receiving, inventory accuracy, and safety, while identifying opportunities to improve efficiency and throughput.
• Lead operational teams through change, emphasizing trust and relationship-building.
• Meet people where they are, whether dealing with legacy systems or habits, and guide them forward.
• Manage large teams in complex logistics environments, understanding that results stem from relationships, not just rules.
• Be present on the floor as much as in reports — connecting with your team, solving problems, and communicating vision.
• Create accountability through structure and empathy, fostering shared goals and mutual respect.

Requirements

• At least 5 years of logistics, warehousing, or shipping experience, with 2+ years in a supervisory or leadership role.
• Experience navigating ERP transitions (SAP preferred), with a successful change management track record.
• Ability to manage multi-site operations and coordinate across shifts and teams. Strong communication skills, leadership presence, and adaptability in dynamic environments.
