Logistics supervisors fill many roles in their departments. As the department leader, they manage daily personnel functions including training, hiring and firing. They typically deal with the financial side of logistics more than the packing and shipping side. For example, the supervisor might analyze the cost effectiveness of using one transportation company over another, or he might handle the ordering side by investigating new vendors and researching whether the item is worth keeping in stock. The supervisor sets the overall logistics plan, giving employees tasks, timelines and checklists to ensure the supply chain flows smoothly.
