  • Control fleet operations and ensure cost-effective movement of goods.

  • Solve day-to-day operational challenges with a hands-on approach.

  • Develop logistics strategies, improve processes, reduce costs, and ensure smooth workflows.

  • Prepare and present logistics reports, KPIs, and budgets.

  • Lead, guide, and mentor logistics teams.
