Job Description
As a member of the Data Center Supply Chain team, the Senior Program Manager, Project Logistics will lead domestic movement of high-value, long-lead owner-furnished, contractor-installed (OFCI) equipment from the agreed OEM handoff through delivery to the defined receiving point.
Key Responsibilities
- Transportation Planning: Build domestic movement plans linked to equipment and PO records, the agreed OEM handoff, approved Required on Site Dates, Control Tower supplier readiness, storage capacity and construction sequence. Select qualified road, rail or other domestic modes for the actual route and equipment.
- Project Cargo and Delivery: Direct qualified providers to complete route surveys, permits, escorts, load plans, transport engineering, and handling methods. Obtain designated Engineering and site approvals; coordinate access, unloading and rigging interfaces, receiving windows, and backup capacity.
- Shipment Release: Authorize domestic dispatch within delegated authority after applicable OEM handoff, supplier readiness, transport, storage and receiving-site gates clear. Confirm packaging, dimensions, weight, insurance, authorized service scope and evidence. Record holds and resume only after designated clearance.
- Execution and Recovery: Direct provider execution and resolve milestone delays, capacity gaps, port disruption, failed deliveries, and time-critical recovery. Keep planned, forecast, and actual dates distinct. Escalate decisions beyond delegated authority with options, cost and schedule exposure, and a decision deadline.
- Provider and Commercial Management: Manage forwarders, carriers, lead logistics providers, and project-cargo specialists under approved agreements, rates, allocation rules, and service levels. Define transport requirements for service schedules and statements of work with Procurement, Legal, Finance, and Risk/Insurance.
- Condition and Claims: Own transport-incident investigation and transport claims tracking. Secure pickup, delivery, and overage, shortage, and damage evidence; issue notices within applicable deadlines. Coordinate recovery with Legal and Risk/Insurance and obtain designated approval for settlements, salvage, or disposal.
- Cost and Records: Validate quotes and invoices against approved rates, services, and evidence; provide commitments, accrual inputs, and forecasts to Finance. Maintain transport milestones, provider assignments, costs, exceptions, and evidence in the approved OFCI register with the Control Tower.
- Handoffs and Reverse Logistics: Provide transport evidence to Inventory, Storage and Site Logistics for the consolidated custody and logistics handoff record. Coordinate returns, repairs, replacements, and inter-project transfers after disposition and commercial approvals. Construction retains site control and receiving acknowledgment.
- Performance and Improvement: Lead routine transport provider reviews, scorecards, corrective actions, and contingency planning. Apply approved supply chain controls, maintain transport playbooks, and provide evidence and proposed improvements to Supply Chain Governance and Assurance. Technical, contracting, payment, and legal approvals remain with designated owners.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in supply chain, logistics, engineering, construction management, business, or a related field.
- At least 10 years of relevant experience, including at least 5 years directly owning complex transportation or project-logistics operations for high-value, long-lead, oversized, overweight, or technically sensitive equipment.
- Domestic project-logistics experience including heavy haul, route surveys, permits, escorts and specialized final mile; ability to coordinate OEM international/customs handoff dependencies.
- Experience directing qualified transport providers and coordinating OEM readiness, domestic handoff, warehouse, Engineering and Construction interfaces into an executable delivery plan.
- Demonstrated ownership of operational exceptions, condition evidence, claims, cost controls, provider recovery, and corrective actions under schedule pressure.
- Strong operational data skills and clear written and verbal communication, including evidence-based recommendations and timely escalation of decisions.
- Data center, power, energy, EPC, industrial, semiconductor, or comparable capital-project experience with transformers, switchgear, generators, cooling equipment, or modular systems.
- Experience building a provider network, routing guide, transport playbooks, or operating model; familiarity with Incoterms, cargo insurance, dangerous goods, and industrial packing or preservation.
- Experience with transportation or visibility systems and reporting tools such as Power BI; relevant project-management, logistics, or continuous-improvement certification.
