Warehouse Lead - Outbound (Shipping)

Who We Are

Porter Logistics is a fast-growing third-party logistics (3PL) provider redefining modern warehousing and fulfillment. Headquartered in Atlanta, we’ve scaled over the past decade from a two-person operation in 10,000 square feet to more than 750,000 square feet across multiple Georgia facilities, supporting high-volume, high-expectation customers across a range of industries.

Our growth is driven by a relentless focus on operational excellence, accuracy, and customer satisfaction—but it’s our people who make it possible. We believe in ownership, integrity, teamwork, and consistency, and we’re committed to building careers, not just filling roles.

We’re excited to be expanding into Savannah, marking our first facility in the market. This new location represents a major milestone for Porter Logistics and offers a unique opportunity to help launch, shape, and grow operations from the ground up while being supported by an established, Atlanta-based organization.
