Managing a large team of 100-150 direct and indirect reports, including Assistant Managers and Supervisors, you’ll play a central role in shaping culture, implementing new processes, and driving safety, productivity, and engagement. You’ll also partner cross-functionally with business stakeholders both inside and outside the fulfillment center.
