  • Drive landed cost improvement initiatives through optimization of routing, carrier mix, and asset utilization
  • Identify, assess, and mitigate transportation risk related to labor actions, geopolitical events, trade policy, and port congestion
  • Partner closely with Origin Cargo Management, customs, and North American landside operations to ensure end-to-end network alignment
  • Lead Mexico cross-border import transportation strategy and execution
  • Own the international transportation technology roadmap, identifying scalability needs and systemic risk
  • Conduct market intelligence and monitor global transportation trends impacting cost, capacity, and network resilience
  • Build and maintain senior-level relationships with ocean carriers and port operators
  • Lead, develop, and retain a high-performing international transportation team
  • Advance sustainability initiatives to reduce empty miles, improve asset utilization, and lower emissions

Minimum Qualifications
