About Takia Parker

With over 14 years of work experience in various industries, I am a versatile and adaptable Operations Manager who thrives in dynamic and fast-paced environments. My core competencies include warehouse management, inventory control, quality assurance, safety compliance, and team leadership. I am passionate about improving operational efficiency, customer satisfaction, and employee engagement. I currently manage the daily warehouse operations for Project Verte, a start-up company that uses automation and robotics to transform e-commerce fulfillment. At Project Verte, I oversee the people, process, and platform aspects of the warehouse, ensuring quality, safety, productivity, and team morale. I manage 5 direct reports and 68 indirect reports, and I am responsible for hiring, training, and scheduling employees. I also resolve any warehouse issues as they arise, and ensure timely shipping of finished goods to meet scheduled dock appointments. I use various tools and systems, such as WMS, AS400, Cubiscan, Excel, and RF Gun, to manage inventory, create reports, and receive goods. I have successfully implemented training programs on lock-out/tag-out, forklift safety, and matrix butler system. I have also contributed to increasing the user retention rate by 25% through active listening and feedback.
