Freight Manager
We’re a growing multi-facility operation consolidating all freight and transportation responsibilities under a single owner for the first time. Freight activity is currently fragmented across operations, sales, and finance, and we’re looking for a hands-on freight operator who can bring consistency, cost control, and real accountability across the organization.
Role Overview
You’ll own all inbound and outbound freight across four facilities — from carrier management to rate negotiation to invoice accuracy. This is a hands-on role for someone who thrives in the details and wants clear ownership of a critical operational function.
This role is onsite in Avon, MA with regular coordination remotely across West Bridgewater, Georgia, and Alabama facilities.
What You Bring
- 3–10 years of experience in freight, logistics, shipping, or transportation
- Hands-on experience running a freight desk (LTL, FTL, parcel)
- Strong carrier management and rate negotiation skills
- Deep familiarity with freight documentation, BOL accuracy, and shipment tracking
- Experience supporting multi-facility operations
- Ability to audit invoices, resolve discrepancies, and improve cost control
- Comfort partnering with warehouse teams without directly managing them
- A process-improvement mindset — you see inefficiencies and fix them
- ERP experience helpful (NetSuite preferred but not required)
Benefits & Compensation
- $75,000–$100,000 base salary
- Opportunity to build a centralized freight function from the ground up
- High visibility across operations, finance, and leadership
- Potential for future administrative support as the function scales
