Job Description:

Logistics Install Manager (Furniture and Design)



Join Elite Austin, where we're not just a team- we're a work family that works well together, lifts up and supports one another (and has fun while doing it)! As a local design company specializing in home staging and furniture rental, we take pride in our collaborative and lively atmosphere that values work-life balance like it's a prized possession. Your day kicks off at 7:00 AM and wraps up by 3:30 PM, leaving the rest of your day and weekends wide open for adventures.



We're on the lookout for a spirited Logistics Install Manager to lead the day-to-day of our Logistics Department. If you're brimming with energy, love to lead a team and have a knack for keeping things organized (while maybe adding a splash of fun!), you could be our perfect fit! You'll be managing a dynamic crew of 4-6, keeping our trusty fleet of four company-owned trucks in tip-top shape, and ensuring our daily routes run smooth and efficient! This position requires a lot of hands-on, work in the field that includes physical labor. This is not a solely computer-based position.



Are you a self-starter who isn't afraid to be on your feet most of the day? Although part of this position is managing our amazing crew, as mentioned above, you will also be jumping in on the routes 3-4 days a week. A route involves driving our trucks around the Austin metro area and installing and removing our inventory from clients' luxury homes. This is an active position that will require providing hands-on training to others while working hard yourself at the same time. If you've got a problem-solving mindset and can keep your cool amidst the chaos, you'll fit right in!



Some prior leadership experience is a must, as this role involves building relationships, training your crew, and giving constructive feedback like a pro. And don't worry-we believe in nurturing our leaders, so additional training will be on the menu!



We're all about finding individuals who are seeking a fulfilling career, not just another job. At Elite Austin, we're committed to personal development that aligns with your unique skills, interests, and goals.



We take care of our team like they're family. Our full-time logistics positions come packed with benefits: medical, dental, paid time off, paid holidays, extra sick leave, short- and long-term disability, parental leave, and a matching 401k. Oh, and did we mention shoe reimbursement? Flexibility is also part of the package, with leave without pay available if you need it.



We work hard, and we play hard! Our quarterly company events are a time for fun and relaxation-whether it's showing off your golf skills at TopGolf or enjoying a leisurely cruise on Lady Bird Lake, we love to connect and spend time together!





--- Compensation: $48,000 - $52,000 per year DOE + Quarterly/Monthly bonus opportunities.
--- Experience in the moving industry is a plus! Not required.

Responsibilities:
--- Oversee and Manage Route Operations: You'll be the captain of the ship (or truck) for our logistics team! Each route (2-3 per day) usually consists of one installation with a designer and one "move out" with just the logistics crew. Kick off the day with morning meetings to set everyone up for success!
--- Be Hands-On: Expect to roll up your sleeves and perform route duties 3-4 days a week, delivering the Elite Experience to clients. You'll lead by example, ensuring all quality control and property protection procedures are followed. Going above and beyond for clients is what we do best!
--- Train and Develop Your Team: You'll be the cheerleader for your crew, keeping quality control a top priority and making sure everyone is on the same page with current procedures. Continuous improvement is our daily mantra!
--- Provide Dispatch-Style Support: Keep the lines of communication open! Update the crew with new info and tackle any challenges that pop up during the day. Reroute crews when they need a little extra help!
--- Route Scheduling and Planning: Be the mastermind behind scheduling each crew member on the company calendar. Formulate the most efficient routes possible and add extra hands if needed to keep things running smoothly.
--- Truck Maintenance and Repairs: Schedule repairs and preventative services to keep our fleet running like a dream. Make sure truck cleanings and other maintenance are handled like clockwork!

Qualifications:
--- Excellent communication skills are a must, both in-person and over the phone, to effectively connect with team members from various departments.
--- Previous experience in leadership is required, along with the ability to provide honest and constructive feedback without sugarcoating.
--- Setting a professional example for the team is essential in this role.

--- Strong problem-solving skills and a proactive approach to challenges are highly desired.

--- Demonstrating integrity, accountability, and self-motivation is expected.
--- While experience in the moving industry is a bonus, it is not a mandatory requirement.
