Logistics, Transportation & Supply Chain Executive Search
Operations, network, commercial, and cross-border leadership for 3PLs, freight forwarders, carriers, and warehousing operators across the US–Mexico corridor.
Silvia Flores leads logistics and transportation executive search across the US–Mexico corridor — with a heavy footprint at the border (Nuevo Laredo, Laredo, Ciudad Juárez, El Paso, Tijuana, Reynosa) and inland hubs in Monterrey, Mexico City, Guadalajara, the Bajío, Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, and Chicago. The practice serves 3PL and 4PL operators, freight forwarders, customs brokers, asset-based carriers, and warehousing and distribution networks as businesses in their own right.
Segments served
- Third-party logistics (3PL) and fourth-party logistics (4PL) operators
- Freight forwarding, brokerage, and customs (US–Mexico cross-border)
- Trucking, rail intermodal, and drayage operators
- Warehousing, distribution centers, and fulfillment operations
- Ports, terminals, and last-mile logistics
- Contract logistics for automotive, retail, e-commerce, and industrial verticals
- IMMEX / maquiladora bonded logistics and USMCA-compliant flows
- TMS, WMS, and supply-chain technology platforms
The roles
General Managers, Country Managers Mexico, and VPs of Operations; Directors of Warehousing, Distribution, and Transportation; Freight, Customs, and Cross-Border leaders; Network Design, Engineering, and Continuous Improvement Directors; Commercial Directors for 3PLs, forwarders, and carriers; and technology leaders driving TMS, WMS, and visibility platforms.
How the search runs
Through The Dynamic Fit Method™ — Ability, Capability, Capacity — delivered via Alder Koten. Distinct from — and connected to — the shipper-side supply chain, US–Mexico cross-border, and maquila / nearshoring practices.
Logistics & transportation search — questions
- Which logistics and transportation roles do you place?
- General Managers and Country Managers Mexico, VPs of Operations, Directors of Warehousing and Distribution, Directors of Transportation, Freight and Customs leaders, Supply Chain and Network Design Directors, and Commercial Directors for 3PLs, freight forwarders, and asset-based carriers.
- How does this practice differ from the corporate supply-chain practice?
- The supply chain executive search practice serves shippers — manufacturers hiring supply chain leadership for their own operations. This logistics and transportation practice serves the operators themselves: 3PLs, forwarders, carriers, ports, and terminals as businesses.
- Where does US–Mexico cross-border logistics leadership concentrate?
- Nuevo Laredo, Laredo, Ciudad Juárez, El Paso, Tijuana, San Diego, Reynosa, and Monterrey are the operating heart — with corporate leadership often placed in Monterrey, Mexico City, Houston, Dallas, and Chicago.
