International Logistics Leader BH Job ID: SF Job Req ID: Ingersoll Rand is an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to age, ancestry, color, family or medical care leave, gender identity or expression, genetic information, marital status, medical condition, national origin, physical or mental disability, political affiliation, protected veteran status, race, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, or any other characteristic protected by applicable laws, regulations and ordinances. About Ingersoll Rand Ingersoll Rand thrives on a culture of innovation and ownership, committed to enhancing the lives of our employees, customers, and the planet. With over 80 renowned brands, our customers rely on our products and services to deliver high-quality flow creation and industrial solutions designed to perform in the most complex and harsh conditions. Our unwavering commitment to ownership enables our employees to cultivate strong customer relationships and solve the industry's most difficult problems. Why This Role Exists Ingersoll Rand spends approximately $250 million annually on freight - across a complex, multi-business-unit footprint spanning North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Latin America. Until now, that spend has operated without a dedicated Global Logistics function, unified strategy, or shared enterprise standards. That changes now. We are building a world-class Global Logistics function from the ground up - organized around four PODs, each led by a direct report to the Head of Global Logistics. The International Logistics & Warehousing POD is the most complex andhighest-risk. This role owns $100M+ in international & 3PLfreight spend - Ocean FCL/LCL, heavyweight air, freight forwarding, warehousing, drayage, and customs brokerage - across all nine Ingersoll Rand business units globally. It sits at the intersection of the company's most acute current risk exposure: tariff volatility, customs compliance complexity, cross-border lane disruption, and an uncontracted spend environment that has left meaningful value on the table. This is not a role for someone looking to manage existing programs. This is a builder role - for a leader who wants to architect a global international logistics and warehousing model inside a complex industrial organization, deploy AI and digital tools from day one, and leave a visible mark on a $250M spend transformation. What You Will Own
You will operate at the intersection of Procurement, Finance, Operations, and Business Unit leadership - influencing senior leaders across a complex, multi-BU portfolio and setting a new standard for what international logistics looks like at Ingersoll Rand. Key Competencies Commercial Acumen: Proven ability to structure and execute competitive RFQs, negotiate complex carrier and forwarder agreements, and drive spend under contract discipline in international freight categories. 3PL & Warehousing Leadership: Experience managing 3PL and contract warehousing partners, including provider selection, contract governance, performance management, service accountability, and alignment of outsourced operations to business growth and customer requirements. Warehouse Systems Leadership: Experience leading WMS implementation and ongoing warehouse systems management, including labor management systems (LMS), process standardization, performance visibility, and integration of warehouse technology to improve productivity, inventory accuracy, and service execution. Digital & AI Fluency: Comfortable deploying analytics tools, rate benchmarking platforms (Xeneta, Freightos, or equivalents), and AI-assisted workflows as standard operating practice - not future aspirations. Strategic Thinking: Ability to translate a complex, multi-BU international freight portfolio into a coherent, prioritized category strategy - and execute against it with discipline. Change Leadership: Experience operating in complex, matrixed organizations - influencing stakeholders across business units, finance, operations, and procurement without direct authority. Analytical Problem-Solving: Comfort with spend data, scenario modeling, rate benchmarking analysis, and risk-based decision making. Who You Are
Experience in the following is strongly preferred: WMS implementation and warehouse systems management, procurement partnership and sourcing execution, 3PL and contract warehousing governance, and international freight RFQ execution. The Opportunity The Global Logistics function is at an inflection point. The spend is material. The risk is real. And the opportunity - to build something from scratch, deploy AI from day one, and establish best-in-class international logistics inside a $7.7B industrial company - is significant. Ingersoll Rand is committed to equal employment opportunity. APPLY NOW
