Full Job Description About REP:

REP designs world-class, innovative gym equipment that is sold around the world, and we are now expanding into apparel, supplements, athletes, and events. REP was established in 2012 by two brothers who shared a deep passion for fitness. From our humble beginnings of selling bumper plates out of a small garage, REP has experienced remarkable growth, now occupying over 300,000+ square feet of office and distribution space in the USA and internationally. With a dedicated team of over 200+ fitness enthusiasts, our vision is to be the #1 Strength Brand in the World. Our commitment to innovation, customer service, and value sets us apart. We believe in building a culture centered around fitness, so we specialize in outfitting home gyms, commercial gyms, and strength and conditioning facilities. Our dedication to excellence has been recognized multiple times when we were featured in the Inc. 5000 fastest growing private companies in 2018 and 2021 and then voted the best home strength product launch in 2022 by Garage Gym Experiment. Our team works out together, and we regularly invite fitness superstars to join us. We organize fun challenges to test our limits

• and the limits of our equipment.

At REP, we continue to grow and bring new opportunities for those who want to be a part of a winning team. We firmly believe that being surrounded by like-minded individuals fuels creative energy and fosters a fun and collaborative work environment. This role is based in Moreno Valley, California , in our newest warehouse location, conveniently located in a prime location. In winter, it's a 90-minute drive from the popular ski destination, Big Bear Mountain Resort. Or if surfing is more your tempo, Moreno Valley isn't far from Newport Beach. We know and live that active lifestyle, so the REP kitchen is always stocked with healthy snacks, energy drinks, and protein. This is not a remote position and requires you to work in the office five days a week (but that endless stream of healthy treats in a supportive and fun environment makes this office experience a reward, in and of itself).

Our Core Values:

Think Like a Customer

• We empathize with our customers; understand the ' why' behind every decision we make Progress not Perfection
• We don't let perfect get in the way of good ; we are better today than we were yesterday Positive Attitude
• Be a glass half-full kind of person and remember to have fun Teamwork without Ego
• We put the team above ourselves; we only win together Take Initiative
• We drive momentum; if there is an opportunity to make us better, we want to hear it

About This Role:

REP Fitness is scaling fast, and we need someone who can own a site through the next chapter. We're not looking for a manager to maintain the status quo. We need a Sr. DC Manager who has already been through a volume inflection, has built a supervisory bench, and can run a site with enough autonomy that the Director of Distribution is focused on the network, not putting out fires on the floor. This role sits directly under the Director of Distribution with full site ownership: people, operations, budget, safety, and systems. You manage the day-to-day with enough command that the Director is focused on the network. Within 12-18 months, the expectation is that you're ready to step into a director-level seat as REP continues to expand.

Essential Functions:
