Director of Warehousing Operations

We’re building something different in Coldwater. This role leads a high-volume, highly automated warehouse operation that is expanding nearly 3x in size. The focus is not just running a warehouse, it’s leading automation, driving performance, and building a strong leadership team in a 24x6 environment. If you’ve led automated operations and want a role where you can make a real impact, this is worth a conversation.

What You’ll Own

• Lead ~12 leaders and 150–200 total employees across multiple shifts
• Stabilize and optimize new automation systems during ramp‑up
• Drive labor cost, throughput, and on‑time performance
• Ensure leaders use WMS and data daily to run the operation
• Maintain inventory accuracy, including 3PL oversight
• Build standard work, accountability, and leadership cadence

What We’re Looking For

• Experience leading operations in an automated warehouse or DC
• Strong understanding of WMS, metrics, and system‑driven performance
• Track record of developing leaders and improving team performance
• Comfortable leading in a fast‑paced, evolving environment

This Role is for You If

• You’ve owned automation, not just worked around it
• You can step into a startup or ramp environment and bring structure quickly
• You lead through data, accountability, and clear expectations

This Role is NOT for You If

• Your background is mostly in manual warehouse operations
• You prefer stable environments where systems and teams are already built

Why This Role

• Family‑owned company with long‑term stability
• Significant investment in automation and growth
• Opportunity to lead a transformational operation, not maintain one
