Description
The Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) Manager will oversee PowerStop's FTZ operations and compliance, serving as the primary liaison with U.S. Customs and Border Protection and other key regulatory and logistics partners.

  • Optimize transportation modes, lanes, consolidation strategies, and network flow from suppliers through distribution centers to customers.
  • Lead long-range planning for freight capacity, warehouse footprint, cross-dock strategy, and sourcing diversification.
  • Oversee inbound transportation of raw materials, components, and purchased goods from domestic and international suppliers.
  • Partner with Procurement and Global Sourcing to define freight terms, carrier strategies, routing guides, and supplier compliance.
  • Manage inbound visibility, appointment scheduling, dock utilization, and material flow to support manufacturing and inventory plans.
  • Ensure compliance with import/export regulations, customs requirements, and trade documentation where applicable.
  • Lead outbound freight operations to customers, distributors, and intercompany locations, ensuring on-time, in-full (OTIF) performance.
  • Optimize outbound mode selection (TL, LTL, parcel, intermodal), carrier mix, and service levels.
  • Oversee warehouse shipping operations, order fulfillment execution, and customer delivery requirements.
  • Serve as the senior escalation point for customer delivery issues and service failures.

Transportation & Carrier Management:
  • Select, negotiate, and manage contracts with carriers, brokers, and third-party logistics providers for both inbound and outbound freight.
  • Establish carrier scorecards covering cost, service, safety, compliance, and sustainability metrics.
  • Proactively manage freight market volatility, capacity constraints, and peak season planning.

Financial & Cost Management:
  • Own the total freight and logistics budget across inbound and outbound operations.
  • Identify cost-reduction opportunities through mode optimization, lane rationalization, consolidation, and network redesign.
  • Track and report logistics costs, freight accruals, accessorial spend, and cost-to-serve metrics.

Systems, Visibility & Analytics:
  • Leverage TMS, WMS, ERP, and visibility tools to provide real-time insight into inbound and outbound shipments.
  • Define and monitor KPIs such as:
  • Inbound on-time delivery to dock,
  • Manufacturing line-side service levels
  • Outbound OTIF and customer delivery performance
  • Freight cost per unit / per shipment
  • Use data to drive root-cause analysis and continuous improvement initiatives.

Risk, Compliance & Safety:
  • Ensure compliance with DOT, FMCSA, OSHA, customs, trade, and transportation regulations.
  • Develop contingency plans for supplier disruptions, port delays, carrier failures, and geopolitical risk.
  • Promote a safety-first culture across internal teams and logistics partners.

Cross-Functional Leadership:
  • Work closely with Supply Chain Planning to align inbound material flow with production and inventory strategies.
  • Partner with Sales and Customer Service to align outbound freight execution with customer commitments.
