This role sits at the heart of strategic solution development, bringing together stakeholders from Product, Commercial, Technology and Operations to design integrated customer solutions that deliver long-term value and commercial success.

If you thrive in complex environments, enjoy leading cross-functional initiatives and have a passion for supply chain transformation, we'd love to hear from you.

  • Lead strategic customer pursuits from qualification through to proposal submission and contract award.
  • Establish governance structures, pursuit plans, milestones and deliverables for complex opportunities.
  • Coordinate multiple workstreams and stakeholders across functions and geographies.
  • Facilitate the development of integrated end-to-end logistics solutions spanning transportation, warehousing, technology and control tower capabilities.
  • Consolidate inputs from multiple teams into a single customer-focused solution.
  • Act as the primary orchestrator between Product, Commercial, Operations, Technology and customer-facing teams.
  • Drive decision making, issue resolution and executive stakeholder alignment.
  • Coordinate pricing activities and support business case development.
  • Ensure alignment between solution design, operational assumptions and commercial proposals.
  • Manage risks, dependencies and resource requirements throughout the pursuit lifecycle.
  • Provide executive reporting and governance updates.
  • Capture lessons learned and improve future solution development practices.

What We're Looking For

  • 10+ years of experience in logistics, supply chain, solution development, programme management, consulting or related environments.
  • Experience leading complex cross-functional projects, programmes or customer pursuits.
  • Strong understanding of integrated logistics, transportation operations and supply chain design.
  • Experience influencing and coordinating stakeholders across multiple functions and regions.
  • Commercial awareness with exposure to pricing, solution costing and business case development.
  • Ability to operate effectively within fast-moving and evolving environments.

Ideally You'll Also Bring

  • Experience within Lead Logistics, 4PL, Control Tower or Integrated Logistics environments.
  • Exposure to transportation management, warehousing, forwarding and supply chain technology solutions.
  • Experience supporting large customer bids, pursuits or tenders.
  • Project or programme management training or certifications.
