E-Commerce Logistics & 3PL Operations Manager 10 Years Logistics (UK/CA/PL) | 146+ Clients Served Your 3PL is failing, inventory management is chaos, costs are out of control, and you're expanding to Europe but don't know where to start. I'm the fractional supply chain manager who fixes broken fulfillment, cuts 3PL costs 20–30%, and builds your EU logistics infrastructure so you can scale without chaos. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHAT I DO (3 core services for e-commerce brands) #1 — 3PL OPERATIONS & COST CONTROL → Audit 3PL performance & invoices (find hidden leaks, save 15–30%) → Fix broken fulfillment (orders delayed, inventory management chaos, Service Level Agreement (SLA) violations) → Select & migrate to new 3PL (zero downtime cutover, vendor management) → Setup Transportation Management System (TMS) and Warehouse Management System (WMS) for warehouse operations (greenfield or migration) → Fractional 3PL manager (ongoing monthly retainer) #2 — EU MARKET ENTRY FOR US E-COMMERCE BRANDS → Full operational setup: EORI, VAT OSS, customs compliance, incoterms → Source & vet EU 3PLs (Poland, Germany, Netherlands) — product sourcing & vendor management → Amazon FBA / Shopify EU fulfillment setup (FBA prep, parcel routing) — cross-border ecommerce specialist → Coordinate with licensed customs brokers & tax advisors → Build your import/export playbooks & SOPs #3 — TMS/WMS IMPLEMENTATION (for 3PLs & fulfillment centers) → Greenfield TMS/WMS setups (road transport, 3PL, e-commerce warehouses) → Business analysis, requirements, configuration, training → Custom SQL queries, data migration, Power BI reporting → Cost-control frameworks (Lean/5S) — proven 20–30% reduction → Financial analysis & modeling for logistics spend and risk management ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHO I WORK WITH E-commerce brands ($500k–$5M revenue): → Shopify, Amazon FBA sellers, multi-channel operators → Outsourcing to 3PL (or thinking about it) — need vendor management → Expanding to EU from US (or vice versa) — cross-border ecommerce → Frustrated with costs, inventory management issues, or lack of visibility 3PLs & fulfillment centers: → Need TMS/WMS setup or migration → Want to optimize warehouse throughput and warehouse management → Expanding into e-commerce fulfillment, need operations management support ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ CREDENTIALS ✓ Certified Customs Specialist — Poland Tax Administration (customs compliance) ✓ Transport Manager CPC — Motor Transport Institute ✓ BEng Logistics — Rzeszów University of Technology ✓ 10 years logistics (UK procurement, Canada operations, EU implementation) ✓ 146+ clients served | 691 tasks delivered | 90% completion rate ✓ Financial analysis, risk management & cost control frameworks ✓ €1M largest TMS project ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHY THE CROSS-BORDER ANGLE MATTERS Most US logistics consultants can't navigate EU regulations from the inside. Most EU specialists can't translate to American business expectations. I've managed transport in the UK, run procurement in Canada, and now implement systems for Central European operators. That triangulation is the product — your EU setup actually works because someone speaks all three operating cultures before paperwork moves. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ CLIENT FEEDBACK (Upwork verified) "Kamil was strong support for our Poland warehouse sourcing. Communication was clear, responsive, proactive, and easy to work with." — 5★ review, April 2026 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ NEXT STEP → Fixed-scope project? Check Project Catalog below (3 productized services). → Not sure what you need? Book 30-min Consultation. → Unique scope? Message me — I respond within 4 hours (EU business hours). I work with SMBs and mid-market e-commerce who want structure, not slideware.

How to Hire Top Supply Chain Management Consultants

SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT CONSULTANTS

What is supply chain management? 

Supply chain management is the active management of the different components that make up a supply chain: sources, inventory, production, and transportation.

Here’s a quick overview of the skills you should look for in supply chain management professionals:

  • Supply chain management
  • Logistics and shipping
  • Spreadsheet programs such as Excel
  • Supply chain management platforms (e.g., SAP, Infor, Oracle)

Why do you want to hire supply chain management consultants?

The trick to finding top supply chain management consultants is to identify your needs. Is your goal to find someone to negotiate contracts with suppliers, shipping lines, warehouse managers, and other third party logistics? Will they also need a strong technical background in database management and IT infrastructure to help you set up a smart supply chain with Oracle? The cost of your project will depend largely on your scope of work and the specific skills needed to bring your project to life.

HOW TO HIRE SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT CONSULTANTS

From managing inventory to fulfilling shipping orders to implementing tracking systems, supply chain managers are here to help.

So how do you hire supply chain management consultants? What follows are some tips for finding top supply chain management consultants on Upwork.

How to shortlist supply chain management professionals

As you’re browsing available supply chain management consultants, it can be helpful to develop a shortlist of the professionals you may want to interview. You can screen profiles on criteria such as:

  • Industry fit. You want a supply chain management consultant who understands your industry so they can help you figure out how best to reach your target market.
  • Project experience. Screen candidate profiles for specific skills and experience (e.g., enabling smart tracking of inventory and shipments via IoT).
  • Feedback. Check reviews from past clients for glowing testimonials or red flags that can tell you what it’s like to work with a particular supply chain management consultant.

How to write an effective supply chain management job post

With a clear picture of your ideal supply chain management consultant in mind, it’s time to write that job post. Although you don’t need a full job description as you would when hiring an employee, aim to provide enough detail for a freelancer to know if they’re the right fit for the project.

An effective supply chain management job post should include:

  • Scope of work: From inventory management to shipping logistics, list all the deliverables you’ll need.
  • Project length: Your job post should indicate whether this is a smaller or larger project.
  • Background: If you prefer experience with certain industries, technologies, or supply chain tools, mention this here.
  • Budget: Set a budget and note your preference for hourly rates vs. fixed-price contracts.

  4. Interview supply chain management talent to gauge whether they’re the right fit for your project. Here are some sample interview questions.

FAQS FOR HIRING SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT CONSULTANTS

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to hire a supply chain management consultant?

Rates can vary due to many factors, including expertise and experience, location, and market conditions.

  • An experienced supply chain management consultant may command higher fees but also work faster, have more specialized areas of expertise, and deliver higher-quality work.
  • A freelancer who is still in the process of building a client base may price their supply chain management more competitively.

Which one is right for you will depend on the specifics of your project.

How long should you contract a supply chain management consultant to complete your project?

As difficult as it is to estimate how long you will need a supply chain manager, budgeting time is very important to keeping your project on track.
