• Champion Innovation: Drive the adoption and ROI of game-changing initiatives, including robotics, automation, and WMS/LMS upgrades.

• Master the P&L: Manage multi-site budgets and resource allocation, optimizing for throughput and cost-per-unit without compromising on customer experience.

• Build a Talent Legacy: Architect a high-performing leadership bench, developing Site Directors and functional leaders who can execute independently and grow with the company.

• Presence-Driven Culture: Embody Spreetail’s Mantras by being visible at our sites, connecting with frontline teams, and reinforcing a culture of high performance and engagement.

What experiences will help you in this role:

• Direct P&L Ownership: A proven track record of owning the P&L for a national fulfillment or distribution network in a high-volume, high-velocity environment (e-commerce, 3PL, or omnichannel retail preferred).

• Scale & Leadership Architecture: Experience leading organizations of 500+ associates across multiple facilities; depth in building and mentoring Site Director and GM-level teams.

• Technological Mastery: Strong command of fulfillment technology, including WMS, LMS, and robotics/automation ; proven ability to lead major technology transitions and make high-stakes CapEx decisions.

• Network & Capacity Strategy: Demonstrated ability to design and refine multi-site operating models, including site selection and capacity planning with a 3-year horizon.

• Executive Presence: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills; comfortable presenting operational strategy and data-driven insights to C-level and Board-level audiences.
