JOB DESCRIPTION

LOGISTICS COORDINATOR

A logistics coordinator is essential to maintaining the smooth movement of supplies and products through a business's supply chain. Coordinating and overseeing a variety of logistical processes, including order processing, inventory control, and transportation, are part of this job. Optimizing product flow while reducing expenses and raising customer satisfaction is the main objective.

For a business's supply chain to run well, a logistics coordinator is necessary to make sure that goods are delivered to clients quickly and affordably, comply with legal requirements, and uphold goodwill with partners and clients.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Organize Your Travel: Plan and organize shipments, choosing carriers, scheduling transportation, and guaranteeing on-time delivery. To make sure shipments arrive at their destinations on schedule, track and monitor them. Deal with any transportation-related problems or delays and keep in touch with drivers and carriers.
  • Inventory Control: Ensure that inventory levels and warehouse stock are accurately documented. To avoid overstocking or understocking, keep an eye on your stock levels. Collaborate with the warehousing staff to guarantee effective product storage and retrieval.
  • Order Fulfillment: Handle client orders with precision and speed.
    Make sure orders are sent and packaged in accordance with what the customer has requested. Respond to consumer questions and address any problems pertaining to orders.
  • Record-keeping and Adherence: Prepare the necessary customs and shipping paperwork for shipments going abroad. Make sure that all applicable laws and rules—such as those pertaining to customs, safety, and the environment—are followed. Remain informed about any modifications to rules or specifications.
  • Carrier and Vendor Relations: Build and preserve solid connections with suppliers, carriers, and logistics service providers. With these partners, haggle over terms, pricing, and contracts in order to cut expenses and enhance quality of service.
  • Cost Control: Costs associated with logistics, such as those for shipping, warehousing, and packaging, should be tracked and managed. Determine areas where money can be saved and put solutions in place to cut costs.
  • Reporting and Analysis of Data: Gather and examine logistics-related data in order to spot patterns and potential improvement areas. To offer insights on key performance indicators (KPIs), generate reports on a regular basis.
  • Solving Issues: Resolve and handle logistical problems, including inventory inconsistencies, broken items, and delays in transit. Create and carry out backup plans in case something unexpected happens.
  • Initiatives for Sustainability: Encourage and put into effect eco-friendly logistical techniques, like cutting waste and carbon emissions.

Qualifications:

  • A bachelor's degree in business, logistics, supply chain management, or a similar discipline (or comparable job experience).
  • A track record of success in logistics or a related position, ideally in a sector that the hiring organization is interested in.
  • Strong understanding of supply chain concepts and logistics.
