Location: Cincinnati, OH (New ACF Office)


About ACF Global Logistics

ACF Global Logistics is a privately held, woman-owned global logistics provider built for shippers that need real control over international freight, customs, and cross-border supply chains.


We operate our own offices and teams across the U.S., Mexico, Europe, and Asia, with in-house customs brokerage, bonded warehousing, and direct carrier relationships. No agents. No handoffs. No guesswork.


Our new Cincinnati office was opened specifically to support experienced domestic logistics professionals who want to expand what they can offer their customers into international, cross-border, and customs-driven freight—without rebuilding their book from scratch.


Who This Role Is For

This role is designed for successful domestic freight brokers and logistics account executives who:

  • Have a strong, relationship-driven book of domestic business
  • Are increasingly fielding customer questions about imports, exports, Mexico, or customs
  • Want a credible global platform behind them when those conversations come up
  • Prefer staying customer-facing rather than becoming an operations specialist


If your customers already trust you—and you want to grow revenue per account instead of chasing new domestic lanes—this role is built for you.


The Role

As a Global Logistics Account Executive, you’ll focus on expanding international, cross-border, and customs services within existing customer relationships, while also developing new global accounts.

You’ll be based in our Cincinnati office and supported by ACF’s in-house operational teams across:

  • Identify opportunities tied to imports, exports, Mexico flows, bonded freight, and landed-cost optimization
  • Build long-term customer relationships centered on execution, reliability, and trust
  • Collaborate with ACF’s global teams to design practical, executable logistics solutions
  • Present routing options, cost benchmarks, and transit comparisons clearly and confidently
  • Remain the primary commercial point of contact while leveraging ACF’s in-house capabilities
  • Track pipeline activity and performance through CRM tools


What You Bring
  • 5+ years of experience in domestic brokerage or logistics sales
  • Proven success managing and growing customer relationships
  • Interest in expanding into global logistics (international experience not required)
  • Consultative selling mindset—not transactional
  • Strong communication, organization, and follow-through
  • Comfort using CRM platforms and basic sales reporting tools


Why ACF (and Why Cincinnati)
  • Ground-floor opportunity in ACF’s newly opened Cincinnati office
  • In-house customs brokerage
  • Real global offices, not agent networks or third-party handoffs
  • Ability to grow wallet share within existing customer relationships
  • Direct access to operations, customs, and leadership teams
  • Clear path to long-term growth as ACF expands its Midwest and cross-border footprint


Compensation & Benefits
  • Competitive base salary with uncapped commission
  • Ability to expand revenue within existing customer relationships
  • Full support from in-house global operations and customs teams
  • Autonomy to manage and grow your own book of business
  • Career progression tied to office and company expansion
  • Domestic and international travel opportunities

Salary not disclosed
Joliet, IL 2 days ago

Warehouse Operations & Logistics Manager : Location: Joliet, IL


We’re looking for a high-ownership, entrepreneurial Warehouse Operations & Logistics Manager to run day-to-day warehouse and logistics operations for a growing company. This is not a desk job and not a corporate “middle manager” role.


You will own execution — people, process, inventory, and transportation — with clear KPIs, real authority to improve systems, and direct impact on profitability and customer satisfaction.


This role starts hands-on and execution-focused, and evolves as processes tighten and the operation matures — allowing more time for planning, analysis, optimization, and strategic cost control.


If you thrive wearing multiple hats, building structure, and treating operations like a business within a business, this role is for you.


What You’ll Own (Your Scorecard):

You are accountable for performance across these core KPIs:

  • On-time, in-full (OTIF) shipping
  • Inventory accuracy & cycle count variance
  • Labor productivity & overtime control
  • Freight and transportation cost per order / per pound
  • Transportation cost variance vs. expected / quoted
  • Safety, cleanliness, and SOP compliance
  • Order accuracy & quality errors

You will have the authority — and expectation — to improve these metrics.


The Role (How You’ll Spend Your Time):

This is a hands-on leadership role with increasing strategic responsibility over time.

  • You will spend significant time on the warehouse floor early on:
  • Leading by example
  • Coaching associates and supervisors
  • Removing bottlenecks
  • Enforcing SOPs and safety standards
  • Establishing consistent execution and accountability
  • As processes, training, and KPIs stabilize, your focus will increasingly shift to:
  • Planning and optimization
  • Data analysis and reporting
  • Transportation strategy and cost control
  • Continuous improvement initiatives

You are expected to flex your time based on what the operation needs, not a fixed schedule.


Key Responsibilities:

People & Leadership

  • Lead, train, and hold warehouse associates accountable to clear standards
  • Run daily huddles to align on priorities, volume, and performance targets
  • Build a culture of ownership, safety, and continuous improvement
  • Ensure labor compliance (breaks, lunches, scheduling)
  • Identify skill gaps and implement training programs that reduce dependency on constant supervision


Warehouse Operations

  • Oversee all warehouse functions: receiving, put-away, inventory control, picking, packing, and shipping
  • Ensure accurate, on-time order fulfillment
  • Perform and manage cycle counts; maintain high WMS accuracy
  • Conduct regular quality audits on inbound and outbound orders
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe facility aligned with SOPs


Transportation, Logistics & Cost Control

  • Own inbound and outbound transportation strategy, including domestic and ocean freight
  • Manage carrier relationships across parcel, LTL, FTL, and ocean transportation
  • Understand and manage all transportation-related costs and accessorials, including:
  • Fuel surcharges
  • Detention, demurrage, and port fees
  • Accessorial charges and pass-through costs
  • Create and maintain auditing processes to ensure freight invoices match contracted rates, quotes, and expected costs
  • Bid out freight, select carriers, and negotiate cost-effective and reliable rates
  • Create ASNs, loads, and BOLs; ensure compliance with customer routing and documentation requirements
  • Actively identify transportation cost savings and eliminate billing variances
  • Partner with purchasing and sales to align inventory flow, inbound timing, and outbound commitments


Continuous Improvement & Analysis

  • Identify inefficiencies and implement process improvements across warehouse and transportation
  • Improve SOPs, layouts, workflows, and carrier performance
  • Track KPIs, analyze trends, and report results transparently
  • Build repeatable systems that reduce errors, cost leakage, and manual effort
  • Treat the operation like a business within the business


Who Thrives in This Role

  • You like owning outcomes, not just tasks
  • You’re comfortable making decisions and being accountable for results
  • You enjoy building structure where it doesn’t fully exist yet
  • You think in terms of cost, efficiency, and scalability
  • You prefer a smaller, agile environment over heavy bureaucracy
  • You can shift between the floor and analysis without losing effectiveness


Qualifications

  • 3+ years of warehouse and/or logistics leadership experience
  • Strong understanding of inventory control, WMS, and fulfillment operations
  • Solid working knowledge of transportation, including ocean freight and associated fees
  • Experience managing carriers, freight spend, and invoice auditing
  • Comfortable working hands-on in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment
  • Strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills
  • Proficiency with WMS systems (Katana preferred) and Microsoft Office
  • Bachelor’s degree preferred; equivalent experience considered
  • Forklift / reach truck certification preferred or ability to obtain


Compensation & Growth

  • Base salary: $90,000–$110,000, depending on experience
  • Performance bonus up to 10% of base, tied to:
  • OTIF shipping
  • Inventory accuracy
  • Labor efficiency & overtime control
  • Transportation and freight cost reduction
  • Invoice accuracy and variance elimination
  • Health and wellness benefits
  • Paid time off
  • Real opportunity to grow responsibility, scope, and influence as the company scales


Why This Role Is Different

  • Clear KPIs and real ownership — not micromanagement
  • Authority to improve processes and build systems
  • Direct impact on transportation costs, service levels, and profitability
  • Leadership visibility and a genuine growth runway
  • A chance to build, optimize, and scale, not just maintain


If you’re looking for a role where you can take ownership, wear multiple hats, and run warehouse and logistics operations like a business — we want to hear from you!
