General Manager Distribution

Compensation: $120,000–$135,000 annually

Job Store Staffing is partnering with a mission-driven, consumer products organization to identify a strategic and hands‑on General Manager to lead operations at a high‑volume Distribution Center in the Denver metro area.

Running a distribution center is much like orchestrating a living ecosystem—where people, product, process, and performance must move in sync.
