About the Role
This dual-function role is critical to ensuring the smooth movement of complex industrial shipments while maintaining full regulatory compliance across our global supply chain. The ideal candidate brings hands-on experience with heavy haul and out-of-gauge (OOG) freight alongside a working knowledge of import/export trade compliance in an industrial or manufacturing environment.
Responsibilities
- Coordinate heavy haul and out-of-gauge (OOG) shipments from origin to job site, managing all logistics from quotation through final delivery.
- Arrange and manage domestic and international freight across all modes — ocean, air, truck, and parcel.
- Partner directly with construction project managers to align and adjust delivery schedules as project timelines shift, ensuring equipment arrives when crews need it.
- Partner with carriers, freight forwarders, brokers, and 3PLs to optimize service, cost, and performance.
- Align logistics planning with project timelines, budgets, and customer requirements.
- Own customs clearance escalations and resolve issues at port of arrival before they impact project schedules.
- Ensure compliance with U.S. and international trade regulations.
- Manage import/export operations, export classifications and customs documentation.
- Oversee consultant work, ask the right questions, and maintain data accuracy in our parts database.
- Approach trade compliance not just as a regulatory obligation but as a lever for cost reduction — actively identifying duty savings, FTA opportunities, and classification strategies that benefit the business.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in supply chain management, Business, or related field preferred; equivalent experience considered.
- 5–7 years of logistics or supply chain experience, with significant exposure to international and project-based logistics.
- Demonstrated experience with heavy haul, OOG, and project cargo coordination.
- Strong knowledge of 2020 Incoterms, trade compliance requirements, and global shipping documentation.
- Strong cross-functional relationship builder who takes initiative to find the right people and get things done.
- Proficient in Microsoft 365 tools including SharePoint and Teams for document collaboration and file management.
- Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills with attention to detail.
- Proven experience with ERP/MRP systems; Avante or SAP preferred.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including ability to present insights to leadership.
- Self-motivated, results-driven, and able to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
- Licensed Customs Broker (LCB), Certified Customs Specialist (CCS), Certified Classification Specialist (CCS), or similar trade compliance certification is a plus but not required.
- Willingness to work flexible hours, including evenings and weekends, as business needs require.
