- Monitor shipments from pickup through delivery, proactively communicating updates, delays, and solutions to customers.
- Enter and manage load information within our proprietary transportation management system (TMS).
- Maintain accurate shipment documentation and ensure all required paperwork is completed.
- Build long-term relationships with both customers and carrier partners to create repeat business and dependable capacity.
- Partner with Sales and Operations teams to develop creative transportation solutions and resolve service issues.
- Identify opportunities to increase margins while maintaining outstanding customer service.
- Utilize load boards and industry tools as one component of sourcing capacity while prioritizing relationship-driven carrier partnerships.
Benefits:
- On-site training and career development
- Casual dress code

- Paid holidays and paid time off
- 2+ years of freight brokerage, carrier sales, or account management experience required.

- Experience quoting customer pricing and negotiating carrier rates.
- Strong understanding of truckload transportation, market conditions, routing, and capacity management.
- Demonstrated ability to build and maintain long-term customer and carrier relationships.
- Excellent communication, negotiation, and problem-solving skills.
- Experience using a TMS, CRM, DAT, Truckstop, or similar transportation platforms.
- Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-volume environment while managing competing priorities.
- Highly organized with exceptional attention to detail and a strong sense of urgency.
