Logistics Coordinator

Logistics Coordinator
A wholesale trading company moving into organised retail, building its inbound and outbound logistics coordination desk
Location: Remote (India)
About the Company
A wholesale trading company moving into organised retail is setting up a logistics coordination desk and has asked Flexiple to find the first dedicated person for it. Flexiple is a managed marketplace that helps businesses of every size hire experienced people without running a long search themselves. Until now, transport bookings and stock movements were handled by whoever was free; as the company starts supplying modern-trade stores with strict delivery slots, that no longer works.
