Functional Build-out, Corporate and Regional Operations Team
Client
A $5.0 billion private equity backed retail products distribution company needed to reorganize and upgrade their entire Operations function
Considerations
We were hired by the CEO and COO of America’s largest tire distribution company to rebuild and add strength to their recently reorganized Operations function. This was a nearly complete overhaul of both their corporate and regional operations teams. We were hired to identify and place a Senior Vice President of Supply Chain Operations, five Regional Directors of Supply Chain, a Senior Director of Warehouse Operations, a Director of Global Logistics, a General Manager and Distribution Center site lead, and 15 Regional Supply Chain Managers.
Our mandate was to look for candidates from best-in-class organizations in the retail distribution space where customer service was paramount and logistics excellence was ingrained in the culture. It was essential that candidates had mastered the art and science of just-in-time inventory management, logistics and distribution.
A continued challenge in recruiting for these roles was the multitude of simultaneous openings, the risk associated with joining a company at a time of flux, and the sheer number of geographic regions that needed to be covered at once.
Impact
Our placements brought leadership and technical expertise to the organization, enabling our Client to add efficiencies, cut costs, and quickly surpass their competition.
