Account Coordinator/Manager, Aircraft On Ground

We currently have one opening on our Aircraft On Ground (AOG) team. Depending on the selected candidate’s qualifications and experience, this position may be filled at the Account Coordinator or Account Manager level.

Both roles are responsible for executing day-to-day AOG operations, maintaining customer relationships, and ensuring shipments are handled with urgency, accuracy, and best-in-class service. The difference lies in scope: the Coordinator focuses on execution and account support, while the Manager assumes greater responsibility for customer ownership, compliance, and financial oversight.

• Track shipments with strict cadence:
• Every 2 hours for standard AOG orders.
• Every hour for hot AOG orders.
• Respond to all customer emails within expected time frames (typically 2 minutes).
• Provide proactive updates — customers should never need to reach out for status.
• Close out accessorial requests (TONU, detention, etc.) within 24 hours or per customer requirements.
• Maintain knowledge of NTG’s service offerings to identify diversification opportunities.
• Perform related duties as assigned.

Additional for Account Manager:
