Director of Logistics

Talento has partnered with a fast-growing logistics and retail platform scaling across multiple business sectors. Our client is a high-growth B2B marketplace, logistics, and fintech platform headquartered in Miami, FL. The company connects buyers and sellers of consumer products and distribution across the U.S. and Latin America, with an integrated logistics and trade finance layer that turns the platform into more than a marketplace.
Our client is building logistics into a $20M+ revenue business. The Director of Logistics will own that mission end-to-end from the first client call to the last-mile delivery, from building the team to running the P&L. The Miami operations include a 30,000 sq ft fulfillment warehouse. The company is currently in the process of obtaining Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) designation, expected by end of 2026, which will significantly expand its capabilities and client value proposition.
