Seven years of logistics and warehouse management experience in a complex, fast paced, challenging environment,

with raw material inventories exceeding $128 million.

Accomplishments

Over a seven year period, directed and coordinated a diverse set of specialized activities for 30 plus direct reports in both the

receiving and shipping warehouses for a large electronics contract manufacturer.

Reduced a pre existing and long standing $1.6 million dollar stockpile of non conforming raw materials to under $16K,

during a time when overall raw material inventory levels within the warehouse increased from $55 million to $128 million.

Initiated numerous improvements in warehouse organization, and its evolving and changing practices and procedures, driven

by a rapidly expanding volume and mix of incoming raw materials and the resulting ramp up of daily outgoing finished

product shipments.

Conducted frequent reviews of an evolving work environment, staffing requirements, interviewing, placement, staff training

needs and requirements, performance appraisals, individual work improvement plans, work reassignments and salary actions

for all assigned direct reports.

Coordinated, on a daily basis, an extensive array of shipping and receiving warehouse activities, with the internal

organizations purchasing, quality, manufacturing, facilities, and program management departments.
