  Req#: BUSIN006584

  Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Cove - the leading manufacturer of luxury kitchen appliances - is a family-owned company known for craftsmanship, innovation, and integrity. Our products are found in the world’s most luxurious homes, and behind them are teams of people who live our values every day.

  Sub-Zero Group is seeking a Materials Warehouse Manager to lead a major transformation in how we manage inventory, logistics, and team culture. This is not just a tactical role—it's a strategic leadership opportunity to drive change, implement systems, and build accountability into every step of our materials flow.
  
  You will be responsible for warehouse operations, lineside delivery, and coordination with our third-party logistics (3PL) partner, ensuring seamless integration with internal processes. You’ll manage a team of 40+ material handlers across three shifts, plus a small core inventory group. We're looking for someone with a top-down leadership style who can instill ownership, set expectations, and drive results—while being a cultural force for change.

  Key Responsibilities:

  Strategic Oversight & Accountability:

  • Own full materials lifecycle—from warehouse to production lineside delivery.
  • Lead and manage a 3PL partner to ensure aligned objectives and performance standards.
  • Embed KPI-driven performance management; hold team members accountable for meeting safety, delivery, and accuracy metrics.
  • Drive a leadership culture built on ownership, initiative, and measurable improvement.

  People & Culture Leadership:

  • Supervise an inventory team of two and material handler teams across three shifts.
  • Set expectations, coach consistently, and take a structured approach to underperformance and growth.
  • Actively shape a new team culture: reduce resistance to change and foster trust in process and data.
  • This position reports to the Site Leader and is a key member of the site leadership team.

  Inventory Control & Systems:

  • Use scan-data tracking systems to monitor real-time material movement and implement control measures.
  • Oversee daily inventory transactions and support the establishment of tighter inventory practices.
  • Coordinate with other departments to align materials availability with production planning.

  Process Development & Improvement:

  • Launch and lead lean manufacturing, 6S, and other continuous improvement efforts.
  • Standardize procedures across shifts to reduce waste and boost efficiency.
  • Support the development of system-driven workflows and accountability checks.
  • Partner cross functionally to implement a plan-for-every-part approach to line side deliveries.
  • Evaluate the entire material handling process with a focus on clear work instructions, full work loading, a safe work environment, and effective training and onboarding.

  Sub-Zero Group is committed to creating an environment of continuous improvement, operational discipline, and team accountability. If you're ready to lead from the front and transform not only materials flow but also mindset—this role is for you.
