Job Description

A well-established, growing company in the poultry and food production industry is seeking a Director of Supply Chain to lead and optimize end-to-end supply chain operations. This role requires hands-on leadership in a fast-paced, cold chain manufacturing environment, overseeing transportation, warehousing, purchasing, planning, and customer fulfillment across multiple sites.

What You’ll Do

● Lead and mentor a supply chain team of 40–50 employees (6 direct reports) across multiple production and distribution sites.

● Oversee cold storage logistics, raw material and finished goods inventory, warehouse operations, and all transportation—including protein movement, live haul coordination, and temperature-sensitive delivery.

● Own vendor negotiations and supplier performance—especially for protein, feed, packaging, and cold storage services.

● Align daily operations with cross-functional leaders in production, QA, finance, sales, and customer service.

● Ensure regulatory compliance (USDA, FSMA, DOT) and build a culture of safety, accountability, and continuous improvement.

● Leverage systems and KPIs to drive cost savings, efficiency, and reliability across the entire supply chain.

What We’re Looking For

● 10+ years of supply chain leadership in food manufacturing; strong preference for poultry, meat, or protein production experience.

● Background in managing cold chain operations and perishable inventory across multiple locations.

● Experience working closely with processing teams, growers, or live operations is a plus.

● Bachelor's degree required; Master's in Supply Chain, Operations, or Business preferred.

● Strong leadership, cross-departmental collaboration, and vendor management capabilities.

● Track record of improving processes, reducing costs, and enhancing customer fulfillment in a fast-moving food environment.

Why Join Us?

This is a rare opportunity to lead the full supply chain at a respected name in the poultry industry. You’ll work alongside a seasoned leadership team, own a mission-critical function, and directly impact growth, efficiency, and customer satisfaction. If you’ve got the experience and want to drive real results, we want to hear from you.
