Overview
Job Description
This job is posted on behalf of Welsh Associates, Inc. by Top Echelon.
Some operations roles are about maintaining what already works. This one is about helping shape what comes next.
Our client is a long-established distributor with a significant statewide operation and a strong foundation for continued growth. The opportunity goes beyond running the operation. This leader will have a voice at the executive table while remaining close enough to the work to understand what is happening on the floor and where meaningful improvements can be made.
Is This You?
The right leader for this role believes credibility comes from understanding the work and the people doing it. You are comfortable moving between the warehouse floor and the executive table, asking good questions, challenging established processes when appropriate, and bringing structure to complex operations.
You enjoy developing managers. You bring urgency without creating unnecessary chaos and can balance immediate operational demands with thoughtful, longer-term planning.
Most importantly, you want more than responsibility for today's operation. You want the opportunity to influence what the operation becomes next.
A Few Things Worth Knowing
- The organization serves customers throughout Michigan with warehouse, delivery, fleet, and logistics functions at the center of its operation.
- There is opportunity to strengthen operational performance around productivity, accuracy, safety, service, and profitability.
- Leadership development is an important part of the mandate, with responsibility for building accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement across the operations management team.
- This is both an operational and strategic seat, with involvement in short- and long-term planning, budgets, performance measures, risk management, and organizational initiatives.
Worth Exploring?
The right opportunity rarely comes from simply searching for one; it often starts with a conversation that creates space to consider what could be next.
If this opportunity aligns with the leadership challenges that energize you, we would welcome the opportunity to connect.
