Asset Operations Manager Jobs in Midvale, UT (NOW HIRING)

Red Stag Fulfillment is a logistics and fulfillment organization built to enable companies to grow and scale their businesses. Headquartered in Knoxville, Tennessee, Red Stag was born out of eCommerce with one mission: to enable our clients to grow their business by redefining the 3PL experience for both clients and employees. By leveraging technology to ensure accurate, reliable, secure, and fast shipping, we have quickly established ourselves as a world-class fulfillment and logistics company.  

At Red Stag Fulfillment, we understand that our team members are our most important asset. We have grown into one of America’s best order fulfillment companies by building a team of people who are eager to be a part of our growth. To make this happen, our team members show up and give their all every day. Our core values are of paramount importance and inform and guide all our decisions. 

Here at Red Stag:  

• We act like we own it. 
• We sweat the small stuff.  
• We have positive attitudes. 
• We treat others with dignity and respect.  

• We always seek to improve. 

You are the one we are looking for if: 

You thrive in a fast-paced, high-demand environment, where business needs are constantly changing. You live to serve, and you love seeing the teams you support win. You have a desire to continue to grow and advance your professional career. You have a proven record of training and maintaining uncompromising safety standards. You are a self-starter and are often described as a “go-getter.” You are an expert in setting crystal-clear expectations, coaching, and training to maintain those expectations, and holding people accountable. You have a strong background in making data-based decisions using analytics. You can work in a variety of capacities including leading from in front, or behind the scenes. You can get up to speed quickly and do whatever it takes to get the job done. If you are more comfortable with someone directing your day-to-day activity — i.e., telling you exactly what to do — then this is not the position for you. But, if you like the idea of diving right in, getting stuff done, and actively growing in new areas, then this might be your perfect fit. If you’re up for the challenge, we want to hear from you!
