Vice President of Operations

The Company is seeking a Vice President of Operations to take on a pivotal role in leading the performance and growth of its multi-state 3PL network. The successful candidate will be responsible for full operational and P&L accountability across a six-state footprint, with a focus on serving food-grade and regulated products, complex manufacturing, omnichannel fulfillment, and value-added services. This hands-on executive position demands a leader who is equally adept at P&L reviews, customer interactions, and on-the-ground warehouse operations. Key performance expectations include maintaining high inventory accuracy, reducing service failures, advancing safety initiatives, and improving labor productivity while managing costs and supporting growth. Applicants must have a minimum of 10 years' progressive operations leadership experience in 3PL, contract logistics, warehousing, distribution, or fulfillment, with at least 5 years in a multi-site leadership role. The role requires a proven track record in P&L management and a strong background in operational disciplines such as WMS, labor management, KPI scorecards, and continuous improvement. Executive-level communication skills, a hands-on leadership style, and a willingness to travel regularly are essential. A Bachelor's degree in a related field is preferred, along with experience in high-compliance customer environments and familiarity with Lean, Six Sigma, or engineered labor standards. The ideal candidate will be a strategic leader capable of building and developing a high-performing team while driving operational excellence across the network.
