The Opportunity
This is a high-impact leadership role for someone who thrives in fast-moving, execution-driven environments.
You will take ownership of daily operations across dispatch, yard coordination, planning, and execution. The role is visible at the senior leadership level and requires someone who can lead from the front, make decisions quickly, and hold teams accountable for results.
This is not a back-office management position. It is for someone who wants to step into the center of operations, influence outcomes in real time, and build a stronger, more structured operation.
For the right individual, this is an opportunity to shape how a logistics operation runs, improve performance across multiple departments, and play a direct role in business growth.
Position Description
You will lead end-to-end operations with responsibility for execution, performance, and team alignment across dispatch, planning, and yard coordination. Your focus is ensuring loads move on time and according to service expectations, while stepping in quickly to resolve issues and prevent repeat breakdowns.
You will manage multiple teams including dispatch, yard operations, and safety, setting clear expectations, establishing performance metrics, and building accountability across departments. Safety and compliance remain a core part of the role, working closely with internal teams to maintain standards and address incidents effectively.
You will also act as a key operational contact for customers, handling escalations and maintaining consistent service delivery. In parallel, you will support business growth by assessing operational feasibility for new opportunities, contributing to customer discussions, and ensuring new accounts are onboarded smoothly.
The role includes oversight of yard flow, equipment utilization, and system usage to drive efficiency and data accuracy. You will report directly to senior leadership with structured updates on operational performance, customer issues, safety metrics, and overall efficiency.
