Requirements

• Extensive procurement and category management experience supporting large-scale, multi-region logistics and commercial private fleets (Fortune 500-level preferred).
• Mastery of fleet programs (leasing, maintenance, routing tech) combined with 3PL expertise (parcel, brokerage, intermodal, and international freight).
• Strong negotiation skills with a track record of delivering sustainable, repeatable value.
• Executive presence to present complex value-realization strategies to senior leadership.
• Data-driven mindset familiar with fleet KPIs, DOT considerations, and transportation tools such as TMS, parcel analytics, and freight audit platforms.

• Lead complex RFPs/RFQs and supplier evaluations, translating enterprise goals into regional execution plans that deliver year-over-year savings and working-capital benefits.
• Structure and manage diverse commercial agreements, including MSAs, fuel mechanisms, rate structures, SLAs, and liability terms, ensuring all contracts reflect unique operational realities.
• Own the supplier lifecycle for both carriers and fleet vendors. Use scorecards and QBRs to drive continuous improvement, standardization, and risk mitigation.
• Analyze freight markets and fleet cost drivers (e.g., cost per mile, capacity trends, rate indices). Act as a subject matter expert for leadership on pricing, uptime, and innovation.
• Collaborate with Fleet Operations, Finance, IT, and Safety to balance cost, service, and compliance across a global, multi-region network.
