· Track container locations, transportation assignments, completed loads, and required paperwork.
· Maintain accountability and provide clear daily updates on what is scheduled, completed, or outstanding.

· Build an understanding of material flow, costs, margins, customer relationships, and purchasing decisions.
· With experience and demonstrated performance, train in supplier outreach, material evaluation, purchasing, and buying.
· Look for practical opportunities to improve efficiency, service, and profitability.
Qualifications & Characteristics
· Hands-on experience in logistics, dispatch, transportation coordination, or a closely related operation strongly preferred.
· Ability to manage multiple priorities, drivers, and time-sensitive tasks without constant direction.
· Strong computer, organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills.
· Business-minded and commercially curious: understands budgets, costs, margins, and the importance of profitable decisions.
· A business degree or relevant education is a plus, but initiative, judgment, and proven ability matter most.
· Confident, dependable, energetic, resourceful, accountable, and eager to establish a long-term career.
· Comfortable working in an active industrial environment and communicating with employees at every level.
What Success Looks Like
· Daily transportation runs smoothly, customers receive proactive updates, and containers and paperwork stay organized.
· The General Manager can delegate responsibilities and trust that they will be completed.
· The employee learns the business, identifies improvements, and demonstrates the potential to take on buying or other leadership responsibilities.
Compensation & Development
Pay is based on qualifications and relevant experience. A performance review will be conducted after the first 90 days to evaluate progress, responsibilities, and potential compensation adjustments. Advancement into purchasing or broader operations is an opportunity based on demonstrated ability and business needs, not an automatic promotion.
