Logistics Coordinator Jobs in South Carolina

Join Our Dynamic Team as a Logistics Coordinator in Charleston, SC!

Are you a quick-thinking, detail-obsessed professional with over-the-road (OTR) experience who thrives in a fast-paced environment and loves turning chaos into seamless operations? At our boutique brokerage firm in beautiful Charleston, SC, we're not just shipping goods—we're building lasting partnerships with manufacturers through honest, visible, and reliable Full Truckload (FTL) services. Specializing in reefers, dry vans, open decks, and expedited shipments, we're a small, tight-knit team where every role makes a massive impact. If you're ready to step into a position where your skills shine and your contributions are truly valued, this is your opportunity!

We're seeking an exceptional Logistics Coordinator with OTR experience to join us immediately and help manage our established accounts. This isn't just a job—it's a chance to be part of a collaborative crew that prioritizes integrity, speed, and smarts. Our coordinators are superstars: always early, lightning-fast with responses (under a minute!), impeccable attention to detail, and a true team player with top-notch communication skills. If that sounds like you, we want to hear from you within the next 2 weeks!

Key Responsibilities:

• Support the management of existing client accounts by coordinating FTL shipments, ensuring timely pickups, deliveries, and issue resolution, leveraging your OTR experience to anticipate and address real-world transport challenges.
• Communicate effectively with clients, carriers, and team members via email, phone, and internal systems—your written and spoken skills will keep everything running smoothly.
• Monitor shipment statuses, track key details, and anticipate potential challenges to maintain our reputation for reliability.
• Collaborate closely with our small team, stepping up as a go-to problem-solver and contributor to our honest, transparent operations.
• Adapt quickly to evolving situations, retaining critical information from past experiences to handle future hurdles like a pro.

What We're Looking For:

• OTR Experience: Proven experience in over-the-road logistics or transportation, with a solid understanding of the challenges and nuances of FTL shipping.
• Speed and Tech Savvy: You're a whiz with computers—fast typing, quick navigation through software, and the ability to learn new systems in record time.
• Sharp Mind and Memory: Not just job-smart, but truly intelligent: You absorb information rapidly, remember key details without notes, and apply them to overcome obstacles efficiently.
• Reliability and Team Spirit: Punctual, dependable, and always ready to lend a hand. Great communicator who excels in both written responses and verbal interactions.
• Attention to Detail: Spot the important info in a sea of data and lock it away for future use—no detail is too small.
• Location and Setup: Based in Charleston, SC, with a full home office setup (computer, reliable internet, quiet workspace) for hybrid/remote flexibility.

Schedule and Training:

• Initial Training: Full-time in-office Monday-Friday for 6-8 weeks to get you up to speed on our processes and team.
• Ongoing Schedule: Possibly Thursday through Monday, with hybrid flexibility (mix of office and work-from-home). Be prepared for potential full remote work if needed—your home setup ensures zero disruptions.

What We Offer—Because You Deserve the Best:

• Competitive Salary: $55,000 - $65,000 annually, based on experience, to attract top talent like you.
• Comprehensive Benefits: Healthcare, Dental, and Vision and generous paid vacation to keep you healthy and refreshed.
• Work-Life Balance: Hybrid model with WFH options, plus the satisfaction of working in a small team where your voice is heard and your impact is immediate.
