About the role

About the Role

You'll serve as the primary point of contact between a U.S.-based asset-based trucking and logistics company and its shippers and clients. You'll handle quote and booking requests, real-time tracking updates, delivery ETAs, and the occasional curveball — a delay, a missed pickup, a customer who needs reassurance.

You'll work inside a Transportation Management System (TMS), coordinate with drivers and internal operations, and support the brokerage team on last-minute, time-sensitive shipments. The pace is fast, the inbox is full, and customers expect real updates — not generic ones. If you can stay organized when ten trucks are moving and three customers are calling, you'll thrive here.

The Ideal Candidate

  • You stay calm under pressure — a late truck, a tight ETA, and a frustrated shipper all get the same steady voice
  • You're proactive — customers hear from you before they have to ask
  • You can keep ten loads, three drivers, and five customers straight in your head and in your TMS
  • You write clear updates that don't bury the actual answer
  • You believe reliability and safety aren't slogans — they're how you work

What You'll Own

Customer Care & Communication

Be the voice clients trust on every load.

  • Receive and process freight quote and booking requests
  • Provide real-time shipment tracking updates and accurate ETAs
  • Handle service issues, delays, and complaints with a calm, professional tone
  • Escalate appropriately when issues require operations or leadership input

Dispatch Coordination

Keep trucks, drivers, and customers in sync.

  • Coordinate with drivers and internal operations on pickups, deliveries, and route updates
  • Assist with load entry, documentation, and TMS updates
  • Support the brokerage division with last-minute or time-sensitive shipment coordination

Systems & Tools

Work cleanly in the tools that move freight.

  • Use the company's TMS to track shipments, manage resources, and generate reports
  • Stay sharp on email, phone, and chat communication tools
  • Keep records and documentation organized and accessible

Industry Fluency

Speak the language clients expect.

  • Communicate confidently about freight types (Dry Van, Reefer, Flatbed, LTL, etc.)
  • Understand basic logistics workflows: pickup transit delivery POD
  • Bring a safety-first, reliability-first mindset to every interaction

What You'll Bring

  • High school diploma or equivalent (industry training or coursework a plus)
  • 1–3 years of experience in customer service, logistics, dispatch, or supply chain
  • Familiarity with a Transportation Management System (TMS) or similar logistics platform
  • Excellent verbal and written English; client-facing presence
  • Strong attention to detail across multiple trucks, customers, and routes
  • Ability to multitask and stay organized under pressure
  • Proficiency with email, phone, and chat communication tools
  • Comfortable working U.S. business hours (night shift, PH-based)

Preferred (nice to have):

  • Prior experience in freight, trucking, or a similar fast-paced logistics environment
  • Knowledge of freight types and standard industry terminology
  • Experience supporting a brokerage or dispatch team

How We Work

  • Quality: Clear updates, accurate TMS entries, and tidy documentation — every load
  • Security: MFA, least-privilege access, and secure file sharing are non-negotiable
  • Collaboration: Slack/Zoom/Teams standups, shared task boards, and predictable check-ins
