  • Track KPIs including carrier utilization, margin performance, and on‑time delivery.
  • Partner with customer service teams to align capacity with shipper expectations.
Qualifications
  • Foundational understanding of freight brokerage, 3PL, or logistics operations.
  • Strong communication skills with comfort in high‑volume outreach and negotiation.
  • Competitive, goal‑oriented mindset driven by performance and results.
  • Preferred: 2–5 years of experience in a brokerage or 3PL environment, especially flatbed.
  • Familiarity with CRM and transportation management systems (TMS).
  • Proven ability to build rapport with dispatchers, drivers, and owner‑operators.
  • Four‑year degree or equivalent experience with demonstrated success.
