What you'll do
Own our biggest open questions end to end and come back with recommendations the CEO can act on.
Build the analysis yourself. Pull the data, build the model, find the error before someone else does.
Go to where the work happens, from warehouses and ports to a customer's: supply chain team. Opinions about freight formed in a conference room are usually wrong.
Run the operating cadence for a freight mode or region. Weekly metrics,: quarterly plan, and the follow-ups nobody wants to chase.
Get things unstuck, which often means finding the four people who need to agree and getting them in a room.
Use AI on everything and automate your own job as you learn it.
What they're looking for
- to 6 years in investment banking, private equity, management consulting, a: high-growth operating role, or running your own company. Founders who shut it down are welcome. Tell us what broke.
- The ability to build a financial model from a blank sheet and defend every cell.
- A track record of taking an ambiguous problem, doing the research, and: turning it into a recommendation a senior leader can act on.
- Relentless curiosity about how physical goods move. Freight is messy, old,: and full of edge cases. That should sound interesting to you, not tedious.
