It comes at a moment of growth: we are expanding our Lead Logistics footprint in the Mexico GSC and transforming how we operate through new digital platforms.

Day-to-day operations sit with your team leaders.

  • Own service delivery performance, SLAs, productivity and cost-to-serve across the pillar
  • Forecast operational risks and challenges, and steer team leaders toward resolution
  • Mentor, coach and develop team leaders into a high-performing leadership layer
  • Lead end-to-end Lead Logistics conversations with customers and product teams
  • Collaborate across multicultural, multi-site teams in Mexico, Manila and wider Latin America
