What the job really is
Your Job:
As the Transportation Excellence Lead at Brooks, you are responsible for designing, optimizing, and scaling Brooks’ global transportation network to support business growth, cost efficiency, and service excellence. You will serve as the subject matter expert for global transportation strategy, systems, and process design. You will be responsible for translating E2E business strategy into scalable operating models, systems, and partner strategies across ocean, rail, and trucking networks. You will interface Supply Chain Excellence, IT, Market Supply Planning, Sourcing, Customer Service, and other cross-functional teams to align Transportation processes, standards, and systems with broader Supply Chain and enterprise goals. You will drive operational, analytical, and project decisions by establishing financial and strategic guardrails, resolving issues independently, and escalating for sponsorship when required.
You possess strong analytical expertise, the ability to operate in ambiguous environments, and the capability to design and implement solutions that scale with Brooks’ global growth. You will collaborate with other subject matter experts to construct business cases with clearly defined requirements and financial analyses including calculated returns on investment (ROI). For business cases that evolve into projects, you will represent Transportation in the planning and analysis, design, testing, and implementation phases. You may also assist with documenting business processes, business rules for data, and organizational roles and responsibilities.
