Job description

Red Lab Logistics is on the hunt for a sharp, energetic Operations Assistant who's equal parts strategist and relationship-builder. This isn't just about tracking trucks—it’s about driving results, growing accounts, and being the connective force between carriers, customers, and our internal team.

  • You know how to prioritize when every minute counts
  • You’re confident with spreadsheets, TMS platforms, and jumping between tasks
  • You communicate like a pro - written, spoken, and everything in between
  • You enjoy solving problems and closing deals just as much as checking off a to-do list
Nice to Have (But Not Required):
  • 3PL or sales experience
