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
