Job Description

Global Logistics Manager | Aerospace Supply Chain Leader

Buffalo, NY (Onsite) | Relocation Available
$140K – $165K + Strong Total Rewards

The Opportunity

Northwest Talent Solutions LLC is partnering with a top-tier global aerospace organization to identify a Global Logistics Manager who will own and transform international transportation strategy across commercial aviation programs.

This is a high-impact, high-visibility role reporting into executive leadership, where you will directly influence:

  • Global logistics strategy
  • Cost optimization and freight efficiency
  • Trade compliance and risk mitigation
  • On-time delivery across complex, multinational supply chains

If you've led TMS implementations, global freight operations, and logistics transformation at scale , this is the kind of role where your work will be seen—and rewarded.

What You'll Own

  • Define and execute global logistics strategy across air, ocean, and expedited freight
  • Own and optimize Transportation Management Systems (TMS)
  • Drive lean freight cost rationalization and supplier performance
  • Lead global trade compliance and regulatory alignment
  • Manage 3PL / 4PL partners and vendor-managed inventory (VMI) strategies
  • Strengthen supply chain resilience and risk mitigation frameworks
  • Collaborate across supply chain, manufacturing, procurement, and quality teams
  • Track and improve KPIs, cost, delivery performance, and service levels
  • Support commercial aircraft programs (no defense work)
  • Travel ~20–30% globally

What You Bring

Required (Non-Negotiables)

  • 7+ years in global logistics / transportation within aerospace or complex manufacturing
  • Proven success implementing or optimizing TMS solutions
  • Deep expertise in air + ocean freight operations and international shipping execution
  • Strong knowledge of global trade compliance and regulations
  • Experience with:
    • VMI (Vendor Managed Inventory)
    • 3PL / 4PL provider strategy
    • Lean freight cost optimization

Preferred

  • Aerospace experience supporting commercial aircraft programs
  • Experience managing AOG (time-critical logistics)
  • Knowledge of Incoterms 2020
  • Exposure to SAP or similar ERP systems
  • Experience in multinational supply chain environments

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Global scope – influence logistics across international aviation programs
  • Strategic + operational ownership – not just execution, but transformation
  • Executive visibility – direct impact on cost, delivery, and performance
  • No defense work – purely commercial aviation focus
  • Relocation supported for the right candidate

Why Work with Northwest Talent Solutions

At Northwest Talent Solutions LLC, we operate differently:

  • Precision over volume — we present only highly aligned candidates
  • Speed to interview — we prioritize roles with real hiring urgency
  • Candidate advocacy — we guide you through every step transparently
  • Confidentiality first — your search is handled with discretion

  • Fast feedback loops
  • Clear expectations
  • A streamlined, respectful process

Process & Timing

We are actively building a targeted shortlist now .
Qualified candidates can expect accelerated interview scheduling .

Interested?

If this role isn't a fit, but you specialize in global supply chain, logistics, or aerospace operations , we're working on multiple leadership opportunities.
