Dispatcher / Operations Assistant - GREENVILLE, SC

Greenville, SC | ON-SITE

$60,000-$70,000 DOE

Are you an experienced Dispatcher, Operations Coordinator, or Transportation Operations professional who knows how to keep trucks, drivers, customers, and schedules moving?

I'm recruiting for a Dispatcher / Operations Assistant who will play an important role in the day-to-day operation.

This is NOT just a phone-answering or data-entry position.

What You'll Do
  • Coordinate daily dispatch and transportation activities
  • Communicate with drivers, customers, and internal operations
  • Monitor loads, schedules, pickups and deliveries
  • Handle changes, delays and last-minute operational issues
  • Keep accurate records and update transportation systems
  • Assist with routing, scheduling and driver coordination
  • Help ensure loads are moving efficiently and on time
  • Support the Operations Manager with daily transportation needs
  • Identify problems before they become bigger problems
  • Provide general administrative and operational support

  • Strong communication and organizational skills
  • Comfortable working with drivers and customers
  • Ability to multitask in a fast-paced environment
  • Strong computer skills and ability to learn new TMS/software
  • Detail-oriented and dependable
  • Someone who can think on their feet and make decisions
The Right Person

You don't have to know everything on Day One.

But you do need to understand transportation, have a sense of urgency, be organized, and be the person others can count on when something goes sideways.

If you're the type of person who looks at a problem and says "I'll figure it out," I want to talk to you.

$60K-$70K depending on experience
