Senior Manager, Warehouse Security Mindful movement. It's at the core of why we do what we do at ALO—it's our calling. Because mindful movement in the studio leads to better living. It changes who yogis are off the mat, making their lives and their communities better. That's the real meaning of studio-to-street: taking the consciousness from practice on the mat and putting it into practice in life. The Sr. Manager, Warehouse Security is a newly created role that will serve as the primary Security leader for ALO's North America Distribution Center network. Based at the Las Vegas warehouse, this leader will help build, formalize, standardize, and continuously improve the Asset Protection Security function across the current four-warehouse footprint, including Las Vegas, Dallas, Memphis, and Maryland, as well as future distribution center expansion. This role is responsible for helping establish a scalable warehouse security operating model that protects people, product, facilities, and company assets through disciplined physical security, guard force oversight, access control, investigations, incident response, yard and dock controls, visitor/vendor management, and risk-based loss prevention strategies. The position partners closely with Warehouse Operations, Asset Protection, HR, Legal, Safety, IT, Facilities, Inventory Control, Transportation, and external public-safety partners to assess the current state, identify gaps, build practical controls, and drive consistent execution across the network. Because this is a build-stage leadership role, the position requires a hands-on operator who can assess what currently exists, prioritize risk, create structure, influence site leaders, and translate field observations into practical corrective actions, site risk profiles, network reporting, SOPs, KPIs, and 30/60/90-day improvement roadmaps. The role requires strong operational judgment, executive-ready communication, and the ability to balance life-safety, product-loss, business continuity, vendor performance, and compliance-related risk in a fast-paced distribution environment.

Develop and deliver security training and awareness programs for leaders, associates, and contractors, including access control, visitor management, theft prevention, workplace violence prevention, emergency response, incident escalation, and security culture expectations. Help establish crisis management and emergency response readiness in coordination with Safety, HR, Facilities, Operations, law enforcement, fire, and emergency responders; support planning for active threat, evacuation, severe weather, facility lockdown, and other disruptive events. Own or influence regional security budgets, guard-service spend, technology requests, vendor selection, service-level agreements, invoice validation, and cost-to-risk prioritization. Oversee contract security vendors to ensure staffing coverage, post compliance, patrol completion, reporting quality, escalation discipline, training, and performance accountability. Support new facility openings, expansions, remodels, and operational changes by reviewing layout, access points, yard flow, dock controls, camera design, guard posts, emergency paths, and premises-security needs. Promote standards-informed controls by applying relevant warehouse and supply-chain security frameworks where appropriate, including ASIS, TAPA, ISO 31000, ISO 28000, NFPA 730, OSHA warehouse safety concepts, workplace violence prevention models, and CTPAT supply-chain integrity principles.
