Director of Processing Center Operations

About the Role

Following our acquisition by Global-e, we’re investing heavily in the operational infrastructure that will support the next phase of our growth. At the center of that investment is our processing center network - the operational backbone that powers every international shipment moving through Passport. We’re looking for a Director of Processing Center Operations to build what comes next. Reporting directly to the COO of Passport Global, you’ll own our Origin Processing Center (OPC) network and have the rare opportunity to shape how it evolves over the coming years.

You’ll lead three US sorting and processing operations today located by EWR, LAX, and ORD while designing the operation we’ll need tomorrow. You’ll be responsible for launching an expanded flagship New Jersey facility, implementing automation, building scalable operating systems, and creating an organization capable of supporting significant future growth. This is not a role for someone looking to maintain an existing operation.

We’re looking for a builder - someone who has successfully stood up facilities, transformed warehouse / processing center operations, and developed high‑performing teams. Someone who brings proven playbooks, challenges the status quo, and knows how to turn operational complexity into a competitive advantage. You’ll spend as much time on the warehouse floor as you will in planning meetings - coaching leaders, building systems from ground up, solving problems, and building an operation that scales.

As our network grows, you’ll also help expand Passport’s processing center footprint internationally, beginning with the UK, while helping define the long‑term strategy for processing centers operations across the business. If you’re excited by the opportunity to build, lead, and leave a lasting mark on a rapidly growing logistics network, we’d love to talk.
