Summary:
The Regional Manager will play an essential role in the performance and operations of Flowspace’s Logistics Network. This is a hands-on, field-based role responsible for managing warehouse partner relationships, driving operational performance, resolving escalations, and ensuring our partners consistently meet Flowspace’s service and quality standards.
The Regional Manager will spend a significant amount of time on-site at warehouse partners near their home market, working directly with warehouse teams to understand day-to-day operations, identify opportunities for improvement, and quickly resolve issues. This person will also travel to additional warehouse partners throughout their assigned region as needed.
Serving as a key connection between Flowspace and our warehouse partners, the Regional Manager will combine operational expertise, relationship management, data analysis, and hands-on problem solving to ensure our network delivers an exceptional experience for Flowspace customers. This builds on the core partner-management, SLA, escalation, quality, onboarding, and expansion responsibilities of the Regional Manager role.
What you'll do:
- Own the operational performance of warehouse partners across your assigned region, ensuring partners consistently meet Flowspace SLAs, quality standards, and customer expectations.
- Spend significant time on-site at warehouse partners in your local market, developing strong relationships with warehouse leadership and frontline teams and gaining a firsthand understanding of day-to-day operations.
- Track and analyze warehouse performance, identifying trends, risks, and opportunities for improvement.
- Triage and resolve operational escalations, partnering directly with warehouse teams and internal Flowspace teams to implement solutions quickly and effectively.
- Conduct warehouse visits, operational reviews, and audits to ensure Flowspace standards and processes are being followed.
- Partner with warehouse teams to improve inventory accuracy, receiving, fulfillment, shipping, and other critical operational workflows.
- Serve as the primary operational relationship owner for assigned warehouse partners, building strong partnerships while holding partners accountable for performance.
- Partner with Sales, Solutions, Customer Success, and other internal teams to effectively onboard and launch new merchants within your region.
- Support the onboarding of new warehouse partners and ensure they are operationally prepared to serve Flowspace customers.
- Lead training and education with warehouse partners around Flowspace technology, processes, product updates, and operational expectations.
- Identify opportunities to improve and expand existing warehouse partnerships.
- Use performance data and firsthand observations from warehouse visits to identify recurring issues and recommend scalable improvements across the network.
- Communicate warehouse performance, risks, escalations, and action plans clearly to internal stakeholders.
- Travel throughout your assigned region to support warehouse partners, launches, audits, escalations, and other operational needs.
- Regular local warehouse presence with additional regional travel
Who We’re Looking For:
- 5+ years of experience in logistics, B2C fulfillment, warehousing, supply chain, or a related operational environment.
- Strong understanding of warehouse operations and fulfillment workflows, particularly in DTC.

- Experience managing external partners, vendors, customers, or accounts.
- Comfortable working on-site in fulfillment centers and taking a hands-on approach to solving operational challenges.
- Excellent critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, with the ability to move quickly when issues arise.
- Strong relationship-management skills and the ability to build credibility with warehouse associates, warehouse leadership, and internal stakeholders.
