Maintain accurate shipment and movement records in ERP systems, ensuring traceability and alignment with internal processes.
Identify and resolve logistics issues such as carrier delays, routing challenges, or urgent customer needs, and recommend process improvements.
Provide guidance and informal leadership to Logistics Specialists, helping train team members and standardize best practices.
