About Zirakian Day Associates, LLC
Since 2008, Zirakian Day Associates, LLC has connected employers with high-quality supply chain talent across logistics, procurement, manufacturing, and executive leadership.

How Zirakian Day Associates, LLC Connects Companies with Talent
Every search starts with a genuine conversation about what the role actually demands, not just the job description, but the operational context behind it. Zirakian Day Associates, LLC takes time to understand the client’s supply chain structure, team dynamics, and growth trajectory before beginning outreach. From there, the firm draws on a deep national network to identify candidates who aren’t actively job hunting but are open to the right opportunity.
Each candidate is evaluated on both technical qualifications and cultural alignment, because a strong functional background means little if the person won’t thrive in the specific environment they’re joining. Support doesn’t stop at the offer letter, either. Zirakian Day Associates, LLC stays engaged through onboarding to help ensure the placement holds and both sides feel confident in the outcome.
Supply Chain Roles and Industries Zirakian Day Associates, LLC Serves
Zirakian Day Associates, LLC works across the full spectrum of supply chain functions, manufacturing operations, logistics and distribution, procurement, inventory and demand planning, and executive leadership. The firm supports industrial manufacturers, third-party logistics providers, wholesale distributors, and other supply chain-intensive organizations that need targeted recruiting rather than general placement.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Zirakian Day Associates, LLC different from a generalist recruiting firm?
Zirakian Day Associates, LLC focuses exclusively on supply chain talent. That specialization means the firm’s recruiters understand the functional differences between roles like S&OP analyst, demand planner, and procurement manager, and won’t conflate them. Clients don’t have to spend the intake call educating the recruiter on basic supply chain concepts. The firm brings that foundational knowledge to every search, which leads to more accurate candidate evaluation and fewer mis-hires.
Does Zirakian Day Associates, LLC only recruit in Georgia, or does it work nationally?
While Zirakian Day Associates, LLC is headquartered in the Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan area, the firm conducts searches across the United States. Through its membership in the NPA Global Network, the firm has sourcing reach across all major U.S. markets. Clients in Georgia manufacturing and beyond have access to a broad pool of qualified supply chain professionals, including passive candidates who are not actively posting their résumés on job boards.
What types of supply chain roles does Zirakian Day Associates, LLC recruit for?
The firm recruits across the full range of supply chain disciplines, including logistics and distribution, procurement, demand planning and S&OP, inventory management, manufacturing operations, and executive leadership up to the C-suite. Whether the need is a Director of Procurement or a VP of Supply Chain, Zirakian Day Associates, LLC has the functional knowledge to identify and evaluate candidates with the right combination of technical background and leadership capability.
How does Zirakian Day Associates, LLC approach compensation benchmarking for supply chain roles?
One of the most common reasons a strong candidate search falls apart is an offer that doesn’t reflect current market conditions. Zirakian Day Associates, LLC works with clients to provide market context for the roles being filled, helping hiring teams build competitive offers grounded in what qualified candidates in that discipline are actually earning. This reduces the risk of offer rejections that force an entire search to restart from scratch.
Can Zirakian Day Associates, LLC support a company that anticipates rapid or simultaneous hiring across multiple supply chain functions?
Yes. Companies scaling quickly, whether opening a new distribution facility, expanding procurement, or building out a logistics team, often face hiring surges that internal HR teams are not staffed to absorb. Zirakian Day Associates, LLC is structured to support multiple concurrent searches across different supply chain functions, maintaining quality and consistency across each engagement rather than treating volume as a reason to lower the bar on candidate evaluation.
What is the process for getting started with Zirakian Day Associates, LLC?
The process begins with a direct conversation about the role, the team, and the operational context behind the hire. Zirakian Day Associates, LLC does not rely on a standard intake form as a substitute for that discussion. Understanding the specific environment a candidate will be walking into, the complexity of the supply chain, the pace of the organization, the reporting structure, shapes how the search is built and who gets presented. Companies can initiate contact through the form on this page or by calling or emailing the firm directly.
