in Supply Chain

The logistics sector has experienced significant growth due to advancements in technology, infrastructure improvements, and increased digitalization. This sector now offers a range of career opportunities, particularly for mid-career professionals. Key positions in high demand for those with mid-career experience include transportation manager, supply chain manager, logistics engineer, supply chain analyst, and operations manager. These roles reflect the sector’s expansion and the need for skilled individuals to drive continued progress.

The Employment Outlook Report (HY1) for FY24–25 projects over 7% employment growth in the logistics industry. This growth is attributed to rising demand for comprehensive solutions and e-commerce management. Roles in warehousing, fleet management, inventory management, and data analytics are particularly sought after. Additionally, expertise in GST and other taxation regulations is valuable. As technology evolves, skills in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and data analytics are becoming increasingly important. The shift towards electric mobility is changing the skill requirements across various sectors, necessitating managers who are adaptable and knowledgeable about these emerging technologies.

Many online and distance learning programs offer certifications in logistics and supply chain management, including Certified Logistics Associate (CLA) and Certified Supply Chain Professional (CSCP).

The logistics sector is increasingly adopting freelance and contractual work arrangements. Although traditional logistics roles may have limited freelance opportunities due to the sector’s need for continuous operation, there are growing roles in application development, marketing, and consulting that offer flexibility. Contractual positions often address seasonal demand fluctuations, including roles in delivery, warehousing, and fleet operations.
