  • Collaborate with Finance and Procurement to analyze cost trends, support budgeting, and validate carrier invoices.
  • Work with IT and WMS teams to maintain accurate carrier integrations, API updates, and label compliance.
  • Evaluate and onboard new carriers to strengthen capacity, reduce risk, and enhance geographic coverage.
  • Build contingency plans for peak seasons, weather disruptions, and regional capacity shortages.
