Order Fulfillment & Logistics Coordinator

The Logistics Coordinator's primary objective is to maximize monthly revenue and minimize freight cost for Hultec's customers by converting every available shipping opportunity into a full truckload (FTL). This means actively managing the order backlog and new orders that can ship immediately from stock, and proactively reaching out to customers — including customers along existing delivery routes — to secure additional orders that fill trucks to capacity. This role owns the effectiveness of the process that moves product from planning through shipping, ensuring no truck leaves partially loaded when a fillable order exists.

The secondary focus of this role is customer service: processing orders, answering customer questions, and preparing quotes. This position is the primary point of contact for customers on orders, inventory availability, shipments, and service issues, and works closely with sales, warehouse, and operations to keep orders accurate and on schedule.
