Are you a strategic leader with a passion for driving operational excellence and shaping the future of inbound logistics? We’re looking for an Distribution Center Inbound Manager to lead and optimize our end-to-end inbound operations, ensuring seamless product flow, enhanced supplier collaboration, and cost-effective logistics solutions.

In this role, you will partner with suppliers, buyers, and 3PL providers to strengthen vendor compliance, improve inventory accuracy, and drive continuous process improvements.

  • Operational Excellence & Issue Resolution: Proactively address inbound challenges (e.g., ASN discrepancies) to maintain efficiency and improve vendor compliance.

  • Data-Driven Performance Management: Develop and oversee KPIs (e.g., defect-free receipts, dock-to-stock lead time, inventory accuracy) to measure success and drive continuous improvement initiatives.

  • Innovation & Cost Optimization: Identify opportunities to enhance inbound logistics processes, reduce costs, and implement scalable solutions that support business growth.

What you need

Required:

  • 8 years of warehouse, logistics or related experience
