  • Talent Pool Development: Strategy-build and maintain a reliable pool of tenured/senior temporary workers to ensure shift stability, high quality, and fast operational ramp-ups.
  • Stakeholder & Agency Management: Serve as the trusted partner to HUB Operations leaders. Collaborate daily with FC Manpower teams (given shared facility roofs), in-house talent acquisition, and external vendors/agencies.
  • Operations Analytics & Dashboarding: Build scalable dashboards, data models, and tracking tables to showcase critical input metrics, labor show-up trends, and quality guardrails for leadership decision-making.

Essential Qualifications:

  • Experience: 4+ years of hands-on experience in workforce planning, labor modeling, or capacity planning within high-volume logistics, fulfillment centers or similar HVH operations
  • Analytical & Data Skills: Advanced proficiency in quantitative data analysis and visualization (e.g., SQL, Excel, Tableau, or Power BI) with a track record of building labor tracking models and operational dashboards.
  • Cost & Capacity Optimization: Proven capability in labor cost management, Cost Per Hour (CPH) optimization, shift rostering, and modeling temporary labor incentive/wage structures.
  • Vendor & Stakeholder Management: Experience managing temporary staffing agency relationships, vendor SLAs, and collaborating with cross-functional operational teams and HR/Talent Acquisition.
  • Problem-Solving & Adaptability: Strong numerical acuity to model variance in demand forecasts, show-up rates, and attrition in high-tempo operational environments.
  • Language Proficiency: Basic English ( especially speaking)

Preferred Qualifications

  • Industry Background: Direct experience in co-located fulfillment center environments within express delivery, parcel logistics, or e-commerce.
  • Advanced Analytics: Working knowledge of Python or R for predictive forecasting, labor show-up probability modeling, or advanced data structures.
  • Program Management: Track record of designing and executing temp worker engagement strategies, core/flex labor ratio frameworks, or shift stability programs from scratch.
