  • Maintain compliance with international shipping regulations and internal processes
  • Audit freight invoices and partner with finance on discrepancies

Process Improvement & Strategy
  • Develop and improve SOPs for freight and logistics workflows
  • Track KPIs (cost, transit time, performance)
  • Identify opportunities for cost savings and operational efficiencies

What We’re Looking For
Must-Have Experience
  • 3+ years in global freight, logistics, or supply chain operations
  • Hands-on experience with multi-modal transportation (ocean, air, ground)
  • Strong experience managing carriers, freight forwarders, or 3PLs
  • Familiarity with international shipping documentation and processes
