We're looking for someone who is passionate about transforming the way logistics operates through Operational Excellence, Lean thinking, Automation, and AI.

🔹 Facilitate process improvement initiatives using Lean, Six Sigma, Kaizen, and structured problem-solving methodologies
🔹 Build continuous improvement capability through coaching, training, and knowledge sharing
🔹 Support the adoption of new ways of working to ensure sustainable business outcomes and long-term value realization
🔹 Lead automation, AI, and digital transformation initiatives across logistics and supply chain operations
🔹 Partner with business leaders to identify opportunities, solve complex operational challenges, and deliver measurable outcomes
Who We're Looking For
We're seeking someone who combines:
✅ Strong logistics, supply chain, transportation, freight forwarding, or 3PL industry experience
✅ Hands-on experience delivering automation, digital transformation, or data-driven improvement initiatives
✅ Strong knowledge of Lean, Continuous Improvement, and Operational Excellence methodologies
✅ The ability to translate operational challenges into practical technology-enabled solutions
✅ Strong stakeholder management, influencing, and change leadership skills
