Job Summary

We’re looking for a Logistics Planner who thrives in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. This is a hands-on role that plays a key part in ensuring the smooth, efficient, and cost-effective flow of goods across our network. The ideal candidate is detail-driven, proactive, and enjoys solving problems to keep our operations running seamlessly. This role will report to the Plant Director / EVP of Operations.

Key Responsibilities

· Plan, schedule, and manage transportation for sales, transfer, and purchase orders — including carrier selection, routing, and multi-stop coordination.

· Coordinate inbound deliveries of raw materials and outbound shipments of finished goods in alignment with production and customer schedules.

· Track and trace shipments, proactively identifying delivery risks and communicating updates to internal and external stakeholders.

· Build and maintain strong relationships with carriers, 3PL partners, and external storage facilities to ensure reliable and on-time performance.

· Monitor logistics KPIs (on-time delivery, routing compliance, tender acceptance) and drive continuous improvement initiatives.

· Review freight costs, rates, and accessorial charges to optimize cost efficiency and ensure financial accuracy.

· Oversee inventory accuracy through cycle counts, reconciliations, and ERP/WMS reporting to support traceability and recall readiness.

· Collaborate closely with production, procurement, and quality teams to align warehouse and transportation priorities.

· Lead or support logistics improvement and cost-savings projects that enhance service levels and operational efficiency.

· Ensure compliance with food safety, regulatory, and company standards — including OSHA and handling of food-grade materials.

· Maintain and continuously improve departmental SOPs to strengthen consistency and performance across logistics operations.

· Act as a problem-solver — resolving transportation issues, proposing alternatives, and ensuring minimal operational disruption.

What you will bring

· Bachelor's degree in supply chain, Logistics, Business, or a related field (preferred).

· 5+ years of logistics, transportation, or warehouse planning experience, ideally within food or beverage manufacturing.

· Solid understanding of food safety, traceability, and warehouse best practices.

· Proficiency with ERP/WMS systems (e.g., Oracle, NetSuite) and Microsoft Office Suite.

· Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret data and make data-driven decisions.

· Exceptional organizational and communication skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities.

· A proactive, solution-oriented mindset — able to think on your feet and adapt in a fast-changing environment.

· Passion for teamwork, continuous improvement, and operational excellence.

Work Environment & Physical Demands

· Must be able to work full time, on site in our facility in Colorado Springs, CO

· Must be able to work in a cold or warm processing environment.

· Occasionally required to stand, walk, climb ladders, and lift/move up to 50 pounds.

· May be required to work overtime, weekends, or holidays based on production needs and data reporting for cycle counts.
