Logistics Manager

Logistics Managers act as supervisors by overseeing the entire supply chain purchasing and distribution process. They take and manage the inventory of products stored within the warehouse. Logistics Managers also collaborate closely with product suppliers and clients to build strong and long-lasting relationships. They’re constantly working with product carriers as well to determine and negotiate shipping rates for materials. Logistics Managers typically handle the entire delivery process of products by scheduling both inbound and outbound shipments and constantly monitoring them to make sure each product arrives on time. To ensure the logistical processes are running smoothly, they meet with department heads to determine which logistics improvements need to be made to increase productivity levels across the organization.
