MANAGER TRAINEE
Ursa Group LLC — Ursa Logistics · Birmingham, AL (DBM5)
Full-Time · Exempt · Competitive Compensation + Full Benefits
ARE YOU READY TO LEAD?
This is not a desk job. This is not a stepping stone. This is your opportunity to step into a ground-floor leadership role with a fast-growing Amazon Delivery Service Partner — and prove what you are capable of. If you have the management skills, the drive to lead a team, and the hunger to grow your career, we want to hear from you.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
- Run daily delivery operations at our Birmingham station — from driver dispatch to route completion
- Lead, coach, and develop a team of delivery associates with a people-first, high-accountability approach
- Own staffing and scheduling to ensure 100%+ route reliability every single day
- Drive performance by monitoring KPIs, identifying gaps, and taking decisive corrective action
- Manage fleet operations including maintenance schedules, compliance, and on-road performance
- Oversee station-level budgets and implement cost control measures that protect the bottom line
- Champion a safety-first culture in full compliance with Amazon, DOT, and OSHA standards
- Build and sustain a team culture rooted in ownership, performance, and mutual respect
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
- Demonstrated management experience — this is a requirement, not a preference
- Proven ability to lead teams in a fast-paced, high-accountability environment
- Strong organizational and scheduling skills with zero tolerance for operational gaps
- Clear, confident communicator at every level of the business
- Experience managing budgets, controlling costs, and delivering results
- Calm under pressure with a bias for action and real-time problem solving
- Proficiency in Microsoft Excel, Word, and operational platforms
- Degree in Business, Operations Management, or a related field — OR 5-10 years of equivalent hands-on leadership experience
- Background in logistics, last-mile delivery, or field operations is a strong plus
WHAT WE OFFER
- Competitive salary with exempt classification
- Health insurance — individual coverage fully company paid
- Dental and vision insurance available
- 401(k) with company match — eligible after 90 days
- 80 hours of paid time off per year, accrued bi-weekly
- A direct reporting line to ownership — your voice matters and your results get noticed
- A real path to grow within a company that rewards leaders who perform
WHY THIS ROLE IS DIFFERENT

The skills you develop here — logistics management, fleet oversight, KPI performance, budget control, and people leadership — are the skills that define exceptional operations leaders. If you are serious about your career and ready to own the outcome, this is your role.
