The Logistics Alliance Inc.

About the Client

Logistics Alliance is a team of skilled professionals who develop customized supply chain solutions with a direct impact on customer bottom lines. They go beyond just consulting, to create, implement and operate supply chain solutions.

The Need

In order to meet the evolving needs of a key client, Logistics Alliance needed a highly skilled logistics professional to manage a high-stress, high-volume position.

The Problem

Requirements for the candidate would quickly reduce the pool of applicable candidates: thorough logistics expertise, leadership and people skills, and knowledge of specific software. Although the need was known, no job description was available or an understanding of the day-to-day activities for the position. Additionally, the company had no formal recruitment process in place and very little time to fulfill the position.

The Solution

A Pivotal recruiter worked with the company Vice President to determine the expectations and requirements for the role, and based on these discussions developed a detailed job description. Using this description in our marketing channels, Pivotal was able to locate a candidate to meet all of the company’s expectations.

The Benefit

As a result of Pivotal finding the right candidate for the position, Logistics Alliance has improved their performance and processes for a key client. Which had the unintended benefit of bringing a key logistics process internally saving the company time and money, while improving the level of service they provide to all clients.
