Logistics Lead - Americas

The preferred location for this role is Ontario but we are also open to candidates in other parts of Canada, the West Coast of the United States and Chile. Hybrid working is available in Toronto and remote first in other locations. Fleet Space moves some of the most advanced exploration technology on Earth: satellite-connected seismic sensors, geophysical field equipment and the batteries that power them.

As our projects across the Americas grow, getting that equipment across borders quickly, legally and at a predictable cost is what lets our crews start on time. We're looking for a bilingual (English and Spanish speaking) Logistics Lead, Americas to own how Fleet moves equipment across the region. You'll be our authority on international air freight, dangerous goods, customs and temporary importation, setting the strategy and building the partner network that turns logistics from a project risk into a real advantage.
