Heavy Haul Logistics Lead

The posting, as Thermal Works wrote it

ThermalWorks is seeking a Heavy Haul Logistics Lead to own the movement of ThermalWorks equipment from the point of manufacture to the point of customer delivery. This role manages the full transportation lifecycle of chillers, cooling distribution units, coolant control units, and related heavy equipment, including carrier sourcing, schedule coordination, rigging verification, insurance adequacy, and permit management.

• Build and maintain delivery schedules that reconcile factory ready dates with carrier availability, transit time, and customer site readiness.
• Monitor in-transit shipments and communicate proactively to internal stakeholders and to Project Management on shipment status, expected arrival, and any deviations from planned schedule.
• Coordinate with the Production Planner and the Procurement Manager on pickup timing so that production completion, materials availability, and outbound transportation are sequenced correctly.

Rigging, Handling, and Equipment Preparation

• Confirm that rigging capabilities at pickup and drop-off locations are sufficient for the equipment being moved, including verification of crane capacity, forklift capability, staging area suitability, and rigging equipment on hand.
• Verify that carriers have the appropriate trailer type, tie-down equipment, protective materials, and handling capability for each shipment; ensure specialized equipment such as heavy

• Remote position, with core working hours overlapping the Operations team's schedule and flexibility required to accommodate occasional after-hours coordination during shipment events.
• Travel of up to 30% is required, including domestic and international travel to manufacturing partner sites, customer sites for high-value or complex deliveries, and carrier facilities as required to maintain relationships and verify capabilities.
• Standard business hours, with flexibility required to accommodate coordination with European Union and Asian counterparts, and to respond to time-sensitive shipment situations.
• Occasional after-hours or weekend availability may be required during critical shipment events, in-transit issues, or time-sensitive customer delivery situations.
