Logistics Network Manager

At Rohlik, supply chain doesn’t stop at availability. It also means building the logistics network that gets products where they need to be — reliably, efficiently and at the right cost.

As we grow across Europe, this becomes a bigger and more strategic challenge. That’s why we’re looking for a Logistics Network Manager who will help design, optimise and continuously improve the logistics flows behind the business.

This is a group-level role with broad impact across markets. You’ll help shape how goods move from suppliers to GBO, into fulfilment centres, and across internal warehouse transfers — while making sure the right logistics partners, flows and terms are in place for scale.

Why this role is exciting

• You’ll work on group-wide logistics design, not just one local transport setup.

• You’ll help shape the network that supports Rohlik’s growth across multiple countries.

• You’ll own tenders, optimise transport paths, and build the supplier/carrier setup for the future.

• You’ll work with real business complexity — multi-node flows, multiple temperature regimes, cross-border operations.

• This is a role with strong strategic impact, but also plenty of hands-on work with suppliers, data and real decisions.

What you’ll do

As Logistics Network Manager, you will own the design and optimisation of logistics flows across the Group.

You will:

Design and optimise the logistics network

• Build and continuously improve logistics flows from suppliers to Rohlik, through GBO, into FCs, and across inter-warehouse transfers

• Ensure the network is designed for speed, resilience, cost-efficiency and scalability

• Review and optimise transport paths, node logic and load balancing across the network

Lead tenders and manage logistics providers

• Prepare and run RFQs / tenders for logistics operations and transport services

• Select and help set up the right external logistics partners and carrier mix

• Lead carrier negotiations and contract discussions

• Review transport setups including Incoterms, responsibilities and supplier-side logistics arrangements

Own transport and network performance

• Oversee inbound and outbound transport flows across ambient, chilled and frozen regimes

• Monitor truck utilisation, transport cost, OTIF and other logistics KPIs

• Identify opportunities for route consolidation, backhauls and network savings

Turn data into decisions

• Build models, simulations and business cases to support network changes and infrastructure expansion

• Use logistics data, market intelligence and operational feedback to refresh the network strategy

• Support capital planning and automation decisions with clear analysis and recommendations

Work cross-functionally

• Partner with Finance, Real Estate, GBO Operations, FC Inbound, IT/WMS and other stakeholders

• Support rollout of new network configurations through clear implementation and transition plans

What we’re looking for

• 5–8 years of experience in logistics / transportation management, ideally in FMCG, retail or e-commerce

• Strong experience with tender management, carrier negotiations and logistics contract setup

• Good understanding of logistics network design, transport optimisation and multi-temperature operations

• Experience mapping complex flows across suppliers, warehouses and internal transfers

• Strong knowledge of Incoterms and supplier logistics setups

• Strong analytical skills — advanced Excel required; SQL / BI tools are a plus

• Experience with WMS systems and EDI processes

• Fluent English; Czech/Slovak is a strong advantage

Nice to have:

• Experience with fast-growth, multi-country environments

• Knowledge of European transport regulations

• Experience with modelling tools such as Python, AnyLogic or Gurobi

• Background in automation or logistics tech-enabled operations
