o Monitor and report on transportation and logistics costs to support financial forecasting and budgeting.
o Implement cost-effective strategies and negotiate terms to achieve financial targets without compromising service levels.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
o Work closely with the production, planning, sourcing, and retail teams to align logistics strategies with business goals and production timelines.
o Collaborate with customer service to manage shipping timelines, delays, and other inquiries related to international shipments.
o Support new market entries and product launches by establishing logistics processes and distribution strategies for each region.
Continuous Improvement & Reporting
o Identify and implement process improvements to increase efficiency, reduce costs, and minimize risks in the logistics operations.
o Establish and track KPIs for logistics performance, generating reports to present to senior management.
