- Communicate arrival schedules clearly to our warehouse team for staffing and space planning.

Outbound Shipments
- Arrange transportation for customer orders (both prepaid and collect) using routing guides and delivery instructions from customers.
- Ensure on-time deliveries that comply with PO delivery windows, appointment requirements, and labeling or paperwork standards.
- Coordinate with freight forwarders, carriers, and warehouse staff to ensure orders are shipped accurately and on schedule.

Dashboard & Reporting
- Maintain a central logistics dashboard that tracks inbound container status, outbound shipments, and warehouse planning metrics.
- Use Acumatica ERP to record inbound and outbound shipment details accurately.
- Provide daily updates via Office 365 tools (Teams, Outlook, Excel) for full transparency across departments.

Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in logistics coordination, freight forwarding, or import/export operations.
- Familiarity with ocean freight, drayage, and domestic trucking (LTL/FTL).
- Experience with Acumatica ERP or similar systems (NetSuite, SAP, etc.) preferred.
- Proficient with Microsoft Office 365 tools, especially Excel.
- Highly organized, detail-oriented, and dependable in maintaining up-to-date shipment information.
- Excellent communicator — responsive, concise, and comfortable coordinating across time zones.
- (Bonus) Experience with any TMS (Transportation Management System) or shipment tracking platform.
