“Logistics” as defined by our family, is: making breakfast tacos with the perfect ratio of fillings to salsa; landing corny jokes like the guy who posted bad dad jokes in his front lawn for passersby; and successfully coming up with any excuse to eat delicious food together. Our ideal Director of Logistics and Customer Operations would agree with this definition, and may even contribute the following specs: heading warehouse operations and order fulfillment for eCommerce and retail distribution; championing and leading your team to success; and optimizing freight strategy. Additional jokes about pallets (palettes, and paletes) are a bonus. If this sounds like you, our family would love to chat with you!

About you:

Leadership and people management are your bread and butter—er...chips and guac, chili and lime, or rice and beans.
Like a clairvoyant fortune teller (or one especially impressive fortune cookie), you see all the details and the big picture, at times with limited information and resources. What’s more, you use this foresight and vigilance to problem-solve!
You communicate effectively verbally and in writing, like your favorite teacher from grade school. Only without the pointing stick, old-school projectors, and grape-scented markers.
Friends and family don’t call you “Ole Hawk Eyes” for nothing—you’ve got the ability to perform and execute accurately and swiftly in a detailed-oriented environment.
You’ve got excellent organizational and time management skills. If you could become an office supply, you’d be a hybrid between an accordion binder and a portable hourglass.
Financial Management is a part of your everyday routine, right up there with thermoses of coffee and funny delivery memes.
Some people are born with an intense love for (or aversion to) pineapple on pizza, cilantro, and licorice just like you were born with a “safety is non-negotiable” mentality. It’s a beloved part of your identity!
