Accelerate your career at RXO
RXO is a leading provider of transportation solutions. With cutting-edge technology at the center, we're revolutionizing the industry with our massive network and commitment to finding solutions for every challenge. We create more efficient ways for shippers and carriers to transport goods across North America.

As a Field Operations Manager at RXO, you’ll lead a large, complex, cross-functional operation spanning third-party logistics, warehouse, transportation, customer, and carrier teams. You’ll serve as a central point of coordination, aligning stakeholders, driving operational performance, and ensuring consistent execution against customer objectives.

What your day-to-day will look like:

• Lead a complex, high-volume operation across multiple functions, establishing countermeasures and improvement plans to ensure customer KPIs are achieved and sustained.
• Coordinate with cross-functional teams to establish ownership, track progress, resolve dependencies, and drive timely execution of corrective actions.
• Monitor, analyze, and evaluate transportation teams against key performance indicators (KPIs) and operational metrics, escalating risks and implementing recovery plans as needed.
• Work with 3rd party warehouse and transportation activities in a 24x5 operating environment, coordinating response to operational disruptions, natural disasters, shutdowns, and business continuity events.
• Develop, implement, and maintain standardized work procedures that align customer requirements with 3PL execution across the operation.
• Partner with cross functional leaders to develop strategies for continuous improvement, operational efficiency, service performance, and cost reduction.
• Establish clear operating rhythms, accountability, and communication across internal teams, customers, carriers, and third-party partners to support an integrated end-to-end operation.

At a minimum, you’ll need:

• 5 years of logistics, transportation, or complex operations experience.
• Demonstrated experience leading across multiple functions and influencing stakeholders without direct reporting relationships.
• Strong group presentation, communication, and negotiation skills, with the ability to work effectively across organizational levels and with external partners.
• Strong proficiency with Windows applications and Microsoft Office programs such as MS Project, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

It’d be great if you also have:

• Bachelor’s degree (B.A.) in a related field.
• Experience in the automotive industry.
• Experience managing large-scale, multi-stakeholder operations with responsibility for performance, cost, continuous improvement, and operational continuity.
