By subFreight Operations Coordinator – Project & Over-Dimensional Freight

Jacksonville, FL | Full-Time | Direct Hire

$50,000 Base Salary + 10% Commission on Revenue

About the Opportunity

We are partnering with an established transportation and logistics organization to identify an experienced Freight Operations Coordinator with a strong background in project freight and over-dimensional/oversized transportation.

This is an excellent opportunity for a transportation professional who knows how to manage complex freight movements and wants the opportunity to earn additional income through a 10% commission on revenue.

You will be working with established freight opportunities and customers, so bringing your own book of business is not required. The focus is on your ability to successfully coordinate, execute, and manage complex shipments.

What You'll Do

• Coordinate project, oversized, and over-dimensional freight shipments from planning through final delivery.
• Review shipment dimensions, weights, origins, destinations, and transportation requirements.
• Determine appropriate equipment and transportation solutions for each shipment.
• Source, qualify, and coordinate carriers capable of handling specialized freight.
• Negotiate carrier rates and transportation costs.
• Coordinate permits, routing requirements, escorts, and other specialized transportation needs.
• Track shipments and proactively communicate with customers, carriers, and drivers.
• Resolve delays, equipment issues, routing challenges, and other operational problems.
• Maintain accurate shipment and customer information within transportation systems.
• Ensure shipments are properly documented and coordinated according to customer requirements.
• Manage multiple shipments and priorities in a fast-paced environment.
• Build strong working relationships with carriers and customers.
• Identify opportunities to maximize revenue and profitability through effective freight management.

What We're Looking For

• 2+ years of experience in freight brokerage, transportation, logistics, dispatch, or freight operations.
• Hands-on experience with over-dimensional, oversized, project, or specialized freight.
• Strong understanding of specialized transportation equipment.
• Experience with flatbed, step-deck, RGN, lowboy, or other specialized equipment is highly preferred.
• Knowledge of permits, routing restrictions, escorts/pilot cars, and other O/D requirements is strongly preferred.
• Experience sourcing and negotiating with transportation carriers.
• Understanding of freight rates, margins, and transportation costs.
• Strong communication and customer service skills.
• Excellent organizational and problem-solving abilities.
• Ability to manage multiple shipments and deadlines simultaneously.
• Strong computer skills and ability to learn transportation management systems.

The Right Candidate

The ideal candidate is someone who knows how to move difficult freight.

You don't need to be a traditional salesperson, and you do not need to bring an existing book of business. We are looking for someone with the transportation knowledge and operational experience to take complex freight opportunities and successfully coordinate them from beginning to end.

You should be comfortable working with carriers, negotiating rates, determining equipment requirements, coordinating permits and routing, communicating with customers, and solving problems when shipments don't go exactly as planned.
