I was head of logistics and drove the entire strategy. EB-1C?

You may qualify, but it depends on how your role is documented. The EB-1C is the pathway for multinational executives and managers: it is designed for those who held a managerial or executive position abroad and are being transferred to a U.S. entity connected to the original company through a branch, subsidiary, or affiliate.

Having led logistics and defined the full strategy can reflect that level, provided you demonstrate real authority: directing departments, making decisions that had organizational impact, and being accountable for resources and results. Job title matters less than the actual content of your responsibilities.

• Documented managerial or executive role abroad, for a qualifying recent period.
• Foreign employer with a qualifying relationship (branch, subsidiary, or affiliate) to a U.S. entity.
• U.S. position carrying equivalent responsibility and authority.

Because qualification depends on the specifics of your background, it is worth gathering your documentation and verifying current requirements with USCIS or an immigration specialist before filing.
