A Day in the Role — Grand Rapids, MI

The morning starts with a dashboard check: overnight orders, carrier ETAs, and any hot-ticket shipments. You confirm pickups, print bills of lading, and prepare customs paperwork where needed. Midday brings a quick walk through the warehouse to sync with the team, align priorities, and stage outbound freight. By afternoon, you’re tracking loads in transit, resolving exceptions, and tightening up records so inventory and documentation stay in lockstep. You wrap by reviewing what worked, updating procedures, and setting the next day up for success.

• Coordinate end-to-end shipping for accuracy, timeliness, and compliance.
• Generate shipping documents (bills of lading, labels, customs documentation).
• Schedule pickups and deliveries; liaise with carriers and suppliers.
• Track shipments, troubleshoot transit issues, and communicate updates.
• Maintain precise shipment logs and inventory-related records.
• Partner with warehouse staff to ensure orders are picked, packed, and staged on time.
• Recommend and implement process improvements to increase efficiency.
• Support inventory management, including replenishment tasks as needed.

What You Bring

• High school diploma or GED.
• Chauffeur's license required.
• Box truck driving experience required.
• Background in shipping, logistics, or supply chain operations.
• Excellent organization and attention to detail; strong communicator.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office (including Excel) and shipping software.
• Comfort working both independently and collaboratively.
• Familiarity with shipping regulations and customs procedures is a plus.
