About Richard Levine

In order to excel in today’s competitive business environment, a successful Logistics Executive needs a balance of supply chain, transportation, and project management expertise - backed by robust leadership skills. I combine over 13 years’ experience managing logistics and warehousing operations for multiple high-profile organizations; making the forward-looking decisions that facilitate significant and sustainable business growth; developing key strategies and policies that optimize supply chain efficiency; and carefully building the processes and systems that sustain an efficient, productive, and globally competitive organization. I excel at identifying and mitigating systemic risk, managing and developing high-performing supply chain teams, resolving complex challenges related to shipping and logistics operations, spearheading process improvement initiatives to close the gaps in business performance, and leading a suite of value-added projects that raise the bar in efficiency, productivity, and business utility. I am a proficient multitasker with the ability to learn, unlearn, and relearn; because success is less about what you already know and more about expanding your knowledge base. I have the agility to pick up new skills, adapt them to my needs, and respond to challenges with competence and conviction. I have the communication skills to clearly articulate my vision, persuade people to take action, and get the ball rolling in the right direction. Whether I’m sending out emails, communicating with a customer, negotiating with a vendor, or anything in between; I communicate quickly, accurately and effectively.
