Choptank Transport's Operations Team is looking for Logistics Coordinators to work at our corporate headquarters in Preston, Maryland.  We want someone who is competitive in nature and a true professional.  Sound like you?  Keep reading.

What you can expect

• Locate Carriers!  We sell logistics solutions to our clients.  It’s your job to locate and close deals with carriers to move our customer’s freight.
• Connect!  Talk to potential carriers (tons of them) and negotiate the movement of goods.
• Show the love!  You need your carriers, let them know it.  We are not a one and done transactional environment.  We want you to build relationships with your carriers and customers and be a key aspect of their operation.
• Harmonize!  Selling a service means you will work closely with our sales team who will provide the service.  No one whistles a symphony.  It takes a whole orchestra to play it.

What we are looking for

• Attention to detail-There are lots of elements that can affect the movement of goods.  We need you to be the expert on every load you move. 
• Negotiation skills-The margin of the company rests in your hands.  Successful Logistics Coordinators approach this as a sales job, not an administrative job.  We are looking for firm but fair negotiators!
• Tech Savvy--We utilize cutting edge technology and want people who can embrace it too.
• A passion to succeed—Need we say more?
• Be a hero!  Logistics is a tough business. We want people who will save the day for our customers.
• Cup half full!  We want you too look for the positive impact in everything you do.

What Choptank can offer you

• Base salary ($30,000-34,000) plus uncapped incentive (Not comfortable working on an incentive?  Then this isn’t the job for you.)
• Industry Training-We have a vested interest in your success.  New sales representatives spend three weeks in the classroom learning our industry and another week fine tuning their sales technique.  We make sure you are prepared to hit the ground running. 
• Casual working environment  (Comfortable people are productive people)
• Get in at the beginning of something big! We have doubled in size in the last 3 years.  We will do it again in the next 3!
• Modern, newly remodeled offices with a fitness room--We take pride in our workspace and our employees.
• Fun stuff—massage days, reflexology sessions, TGIF parties, trips to Florida for top producers, and the list goes on…
• Competitive Benefits
• 401k plan with company match
