• Align with the hub’s physical operator on how loads are consolidated and when they leave.

• Sort out freight discrepancies, damage claims and short-shipment queries, making sure proof-of-delivery records are captured and stored.

• Keep freight spend efficient, flagging any out-of-pattern charges to the Logistics Manager. Qualification Requirements:

• Clear and proactive communication skills, with the ability to coordinate effectively with suppliers, transporters, brokers, hubs and mine sites.
