  • Continuously improve cold chain logistics programs to ensure product integrity throughout storage, handling, and transportation through the supply base to customers.
  • Oversee international shipping operations including customs clearance, import/export compliance, Incoterms selection, and coordination with freight forwarders, brokers, and carriers across all major global trade lanes.
  • Manage warehouse operations across all Twist's facilities, ensuring best-in-class inventory accuracy, space utilization, safety compliance, and order fulfillment performance for both commercial and R&D product lines.
  • Develop and manage relationships with couriers, cold chain logistics vendors, and freight forwarders; lead RFP/RFQ processes and negotiate contracts to optimize service levels and costs.
  • Partner with Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Quality, R&D, Finance, and Customer Support teams to align logistics operations with production schedules, customer commitments, and cost targets.
  • Define and track key logistics KPIs and present regular performance reporting to senior leadership.
  • Develop scalable logistics infrastructure to support Twist's global expansion, including evaluation of regional distribution strategies, warehouse network optimization, and new market entry logistics planning.
  • Follow regulatory and ISO 13485.

What You'll Bring to the Team [Competency/Qualifications]
  • Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Logistics, Business, Engineering, or a related field required; advanced degree (MBA or MS) preferred.
  • 12+ years of progressive logistics and supply chain experience, with at least 5 years in a senior leadership role managing multi-site or global logistics operations in a life sciences, biotech, or pharmaceutical company.
  • Deep expertise in cold chain logistics, including validated temperature-controlled transport (2-8°C, -20°C, -80°C/dry ice), and packaging qualification.
  • Proven track record in international shipping and trade compliance.
  • Strong warehousing and 3PL management experience, including WMS implementation and optimization, inventory control processes, and regulatory compliance.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage and develop high-performing teams across multiple locations; a collaborative, servant-leadership style with the energy to inspire and hold teams accountable in a fast-paced environment.
  • Hands-on experience with ERP/TMS/WMS systems (SAP preferred) for logistics management, as well as data analytics tools.
  • Excellent financial acumen with the ability to develop and manage a logistics budget, build business cases for capital investments, and identify cost-reduction opportunities.
  • Strong executive communication and influencing skills; ability to present complex logistics data and strategic recommendations clearly to C-suite audiences.
  • Relentless drive for results: willing to go above and beyond, thrive under ambiguity, and build scalable processes from the ground up in a high-growth biotech environment.
