Logistics Manager — Structural Steel | DC Metro Area Confidential — Represented by Axis Talent Group

The Company

Our client is one of the DC/NoVA region's most active structural steel fabricators and erectors, with a significant and growing presence on data center, commercial, and institutional projects across Maryland, Virginia, and DC. Following a major contract win, the company is expanding its operations leadership team.

The Role

This is a hands-on leadership position overseeing all outbound logistics, private fleet operations, and warehouse management for a high-volume structural steel operation. You'll be the operational backbone that keeps fabricated steel moving from the shop floor to job sites — on sequence, on time, and within budget.

You'll manage a fleet of approximately 15 company trucks, coordinate with 3PL partners and heavy haul carriers for overflow capacity, and run the warehouse operation that stages, tracks, and ships fabricated assemblies to active construction sites across the region.

What You'll Own

Steel delivery scheduling and coordination with Project Managers and field Superintendents — sequenced deliveries to active erection crews
Fleet management: DOT/FMCSA compliance, driver qualification files, ELD oversight, preventive maintenance programs, licensing and registration
Oversized/overweight load permitting for MD, VA, and DC
3PL vendor relationships and freight cost management
Warehouse operations: raw material receiving, fabricated assembly staging, inventory tracking, shipping documentation
Driver supervision and scheduling

What You Bring

3+ years in logistics/transportation management, preferably in structural steel, heavy building materials, precast concrete, or construction supply
Experience managing a private fleet of flatbed or heavy haul equipment
Solid working knowledge of DOT/FMCSA regulations and regional oversize permitting
Proven ability to coordinate with construction PMs and field teams — you understand sequenced delivery and what a wrong-order drop costs
CDL-A a plus, not required
Strong communication and organizational skills — this role touches ownership, shop leadership, drivers, and GC field staff daily

Compensation

$90,000 – $115,000 base salary | Commensurate with experience
