Operations Manager – Logistics (Miami, FL)
Job Description
Be the Leader Who Shapes Our Growth
MH Logistics is a fast-growing freight forwarding and logistics provider specializing in time-sensitive and perishable shipments across the U.S. We’re seeking an Operations Manager to take it to the next level.
This is not your typical operations manager role. We’re looking for a hands-on leader who thrives in fast-paced logistics environments and is ready to build, refine, and scale operations while collaborating with senior leadership to influence our nationwide growth.
As the Senior Operations Manager, you’ll oversee local warehouse and trucking teams while also working closely with our Director of National Operations to shape best practices and drive performance across all branches. You’ll be the key figure ensuring our operations are efficient, scalable, and profitable.
What You’ll Do
Oversee Day-to-Day Operations
- Lead all aspects of the branch, including warehouse and trucking operations, office administration, and vendor relationships.
- Supervise 5+ staff (drivers and warehouse team), plus temp workers as needed.
Grow and Improve the Department
- Analyze existing workflows and implement process improvements that boost efficiency and profitability.
- Develop and document Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for all local operations.
Collaborate with Senior Leadership
- Work directly with the Director of National Operations to develop systems and procedures that can be rolled out across other branches.
- Serve as a key partner in strategizing and expanding our operational capabilities companywide.
Drive Business Growth
- Identify opportunities to generate additional revenue through value-added services.
- Build relationships with local vendors and staffing resources to increase flexibility and support future growth.
Lead by Example
- Be the first one in and stay as long as needed to ensure operational excellence.
- Remain on-call to handle urgent issues and keep the business running smoothly.
What We’re Looking For
- 10+ years of operations management experience in logistics, transportation, or warehousing (multi-site management experience a plus).
- Proven success leading and growing high-performing teams.
- Strong organizational, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
- Excellent communicator – professional in email, on the phone, and in person.
- Proficient in Microsoft Excel; familiar with TMS/WMS systems.
- High school diploma required; college degree preferred.
Why This Role is Different
This is more than just running the daily operations. You’ll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of MH Logistics as we scale. You’ll have the autonomy to make decisions, the support of senior leadership, and the opportunity to leave your mark on a growing organization.
If you’re a hands-on leader with big-picture vision and the drive to take ownership of a critical branch, we want to hear from you.
Why MH Logistics?
We’re a company that values leadership, innovation, and accountability.
You’ll have the chance to influence systems that impact not just one branch, but our nationwide operations.
Your work will directly contribute to the growth and success of a dynamic logistics business.
