- Coordinate with Operations and other team members when additional support or escalation is needed
- Handle client concerns professionally and escalate issues when appropriate
- Assist with service recovery when a delivery does not go as planned
- Maintain accurate documentation of customer, driver, order, and delivery information
- Follow established procedures while using good judgment when unexpected situations arise
- Communicate clearly and professionally with clients, drivers, coworkers, and Operations teams

- Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where priorities can change quickly
- Comfortable using computers and learning new software and systems
- Basic Microsoft Excel knowledge
- Dependable with consistent attendance and punctuality
