• Partner with Operations to identify and resolve recurring service, billing, transportation, and delivery issues, ensuring satisfactory outcomes for customers.
• Escalate critical customer concerns to leadership and coordinate follow-up actions through to resolution.
• Collaborate across internal departments to maintain efficient account operations, strengthen service delivery, and ensure alignment with customer requirements.
• Analyze transportation data and performance trends to identify opportunities for operational improvements, cost efficiencies, and expanded account value.
• Support account growth and long-term success by identifying evolving customer needs and recommending practical, data-driven logistics solutions.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management or a related field, or an equivalent combination of education and professional experience.
• Seven to ten or more years of experience in operational transportation solutions, with a demonstrated record of continuous improvement consulting, expanding account scope and revenue, and freight or transportation purchasing.
• Experience working with large big-box retail companies is an advantage.
• Previous sales experience is beneficial, particularly in environments involving account development, customer retention, or transportation solutions.
• Experience using Transportation Management Systems (TMS) is required.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office and the Microsoft Suite is required.
• Strong analytical skills, including the ability to evaluate transportation data and communicate clear, meaningful performance metrics.
• Excellent customer relationship management skills, with the ability to understand business priorities, maintain trust, and communicate effectively with diverse stakeholders.
• Strong problem-solving abilities and creativity in developing practical solutions to meet customer needs and resolve operational challenges.
• Effective verbal and presentation skills, including the ability to communicate confidently with groups of customers and internal employees.
• Ability to work collaboratively across departments, manage account priorities independently, and drive initiatives from identification through resolution.
• A strategic, customer-focused mindset with an emphasis on accountability, continuous improvement, and measurable business value.

Benefits

• Full-time employment in a remote work arrangement within the United States.
• The opportunity to own strategic customer relationships and influence logistics performance and long-term account success.
• A role focused on transportation strategy, customer value, data-driven decision-making, and continuous improvement.
