About AFS Transco 🏢

AFS Transco connects shippers with reliable carrier partners across North America. We're a lean team that moves fast and gives people real ownership — no layers of bureaucracy, no waiting around. If you perform, you grow.

The Role 🎯

We're hiring a Logistics Specialist at the junior to intermediate level — and no, this isn't a data entry job.

You'll own shipments end-to-end: quoting, booking, problem-solving, closing. It's a good fit if you like making decisions in real time, negotiating, and figuring things out on the fly.

What You'll Do 🔥

  • 💬 Negotiate freight rates with carriers (TL and LTL, domestic and cross-border)
  • 🤝 Source carriers and build long-term relationships
  • ⚡ Respond to spot quotes quickly and accurately
  • 📦 Manage shipments from pickup through delivery
  • 🛠️ Handle delays, claims, and breakdowns as they happen
  • 📊 Work with leadership on pricing strategy and proposals
  • 📈 Track market trends and competitor pricing
  • 💸 Improve margins through smarter execution

What We're Looking For 💡

Required:

  • 0–3 years in logistics, dispatch, brokerage, or transportation
  • Working knowledge of truckload and LTL operations
  • Strong phone and email communication
  • Ability to juggle multiple shipments and prioritize under pressure
  • Problem-solver with a strong sense of ownership

Nice to have:

  • Background in business or logistics
  • 🌏 Prefer Language: Spanish, Chinese (Mandarin or Cantonese), Korean, Japanese, or French

Why Join Us 🚀

  • 🔄 Exposure to the full logistics cycle, not just one slice
  • 🙌 Real ownership from day one
  • 💰 Performance-based bonuses tied to results you can actually see
  • 📈 Promotion based on what you deliver, not how long you've been here
  • 👥 Join a passionate, rad team where your work genuinely matters

This role probably isn't for you if… ⚠️

  • You want routine admin or data entry work
  • You prefer a slow-paced environment
  • You're not comfortable handling urgent issues in real time

How to Apply 📩

Apply through LinkedIn — and we strongly recommend also emailing [email protected] with:

  • A short intro
  • One example of either: A delay or claim you handled, OR
  • A time you protected margin through negotiation
