Over 20 Years of broad managerial background in traffic management and Distribution
Operation, including extensive experience in personnel supervision and training, I am
Seeking a new career opportunity with your organization in an OPERATIONS/TRAFFIC/ DISTRIBUTION MANAGEMENT capacity. I am seeking a challenge, which offers both personal and professional growth in exchange for dedication, hard work, and bottom-line results.
My professional career covers my successful engagement with ROLLEX CORPORATION , where I steadily rose through positions of increasing responsibility and profit impact. As
DISTIRBUTION MANAGER with PREMIER BEAUTY SUPPLY and OPERATIONS MANAGER with MIDCITY BEAUTY SUPPLY, I am in charge of overseeing all beauty distribution and traffic.
Some of my noteworthy accomplishments with ROLLEX while serving in that capacity:
• Achieved a successful turnaround in shipping operation
• Shipped within 4 to 5 working days against competitors record
Of 4 to 6 weeks. In 1988, shipped 47 million lbs of aluminum.
• Implemented shipping aluminum materials on 4 x 13 ft. pallets,
Resulting in less damage to the product.
• Initiated banding and air bagging of materials.
• Recorded only one flat of damaged material in 1988 compared with
28 flats of damaged material in 1979.
• Trained personnel in forklift driving, banding, palletizing, and loading.
I welcome the opportunity for a personal meeting where we can both explore my career
Options with your firm. I may be reached at the above number and look forward to
Speaking with you soon.
Sincerely
