  • Translate logistics and business requirements into functional and technical system specifications.
  • Standardize and optimize transportation processes enabled by TMS capabilities while supporting essential regional differences.
  • Identify, design, and scale automation and AI-enabled use cases (e.g., predictive ETAs, exception management, performance insights, cost optimization).
  • Establish governance models, KPIs, and operating rhythms that measure system adoption, performance, and business outcomes.
  • Lead change management, including stakeholder alignment, training strategy, documentation, and global user adoption.
  • Manage post-deployment lifecycle activities such as enhancements, releases, vendor performance, and continuous improvement.
  • Ensure TMS processes and data support trade compliance, audit readiness, and internal control requirements.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:
  • Experience in logistics, transportation, supply chain, or enterprise systems in global, high-tech, or manufacturing environments.
  • Proven success leading enterprise-scale system implementations (TMS strongly preferred), including vendor evaluation and global rollout.
  • Strong technical program management capabilities with experience leading cross-functional initiatives.
  • Solid understanding of transportation operations, carrier management, freight settlement, and logistics data flows.

  • Exposure to automation, optimization, or AI/ML use cases in supply chain or logistics.
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills with the ability to influence without authority.
