· Coordinate and schedule inbound freight and delivery appointments with vendors, carriers, and internal departments.
· Monitor inbound shipments and communicate delays, changes, shortages, or other issues that may affect warehouse operations.
· Assist with coordinating outbound delivery routes and schedules to support timely and efficient customer deliveries.
· Work closely with drivers, transportation personnel, warehouse supervisors, and other departments to resolve scheduling and delivery issues.
· Coordinate and prioritize warehouse activity with inbound and outbound transportation needs.
· Communicate changes in delivery schedules, appointments, product availability, and other logistics information to the appropriate departments.
· Maintain accurate logistics, shipment, appointment, and delivery records.
· Identify opportunities to improve transportation efficiency, scheduling, product flow, and communication between departments.
· Troubleshoot day-to-day logistics problems and help develop practical solutions that keep freight and product moving.
· Perform additional logistics and operational duties as needed.
Qualifications
· Previous experience in logistics, transportation, distribution, warehousing, inventory control, supply chain, or a related field.
· A working understanding of inbound and outbound transportation processes.
· Strong organizational and scheduling skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously.
· Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to adjust quickly when schedules or circumstances change.
· Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
· Strong attention to detail and accuracy.
· Ability to work effectively with drivers, warehouse employees, carriers, customers, and management.
· Comfortable working in a fast-paced distribution environment where priorities can change throughout the day.
· Proficiency with computers and common business software; experience with transportation, warehouse, inventory, or ERP systems is preferred.
What We're Looking For
This position is a good fit for someone who likes solving problems, coordinating moving pieces, and keeping operations organized.
The ideal candidate doesn't simply identify that there is a problem. They determine what needs to happen next, who needs to know, and how to keep the operation moving.
Success in this position requires someone who can balance planning with flexibility, communicate clearly across departments, and remain organized when several things are happening at once.
Join the Mason Brothers Company team and help us keep products, trucks, and people moving in the right direction.
