In this role, you will serve as the primary contact for customers, internal fleets, and external carrier partners. Combining hands-on drayage expertise with bilingual fluency in English and Korean, you will deliver exceptional operational service, resolve disruptions, and foster long-term client relationships.

    • Impact: Every day presents new opportunities to grow, lead, and make an impact across our drayage network.
    • Compensation: This is an Hourly, Non-Exempt role. Total compensation includes competitive base pay with potential overtime opportunities based on business needs. We anticipate this role to pay an hourly rate of $24.04 to $26.45 per hour, but actual base pay will depend on the successful candidate's skills, qualifications, and experience. This role is also eligible for an quarterly performance incentive plan.
    • Schedule: Work hours may vary by shift assignment and may include evenings, weekends, holidays, and overtime to support client operations.
    What You'll Do:
    You will manage full-service drayage execution, handling communications, tracking, and issue resolution.

    • Client Communication: Serve as the primary, direct point of contact for customer updates and inquiries using platforms like KakaoTalk and email.
    • Lifecycle Management: Oversee full shipment lifecycles from order creation, planning, and scheduling to tracking, delivery, and post-shipment follow-up.
    • Fleet & Carrier Coordination: Coordinate daily shipment operations directly with internal CJ Fleet assets and brokered partner carriers.
    • Disruption Resolution: Act promptly to address operational challenges, delays, container hold-ups, or service disruptions to meet SLAs.
    • Documentation & Billing: Verify carrier invoices, extra charges (demurrage/detention), and billing details for accurate processing.
    • Data & Analytics: Monitor daily drayage data, analyze service exceptions, and proactively report performance metrics to leadership and clients.
    • Asset Optimization: Partner with internal brokerage and transportation teams to optimize asset utilization and carrier selection.
    What You Bring to the Table:
    • Language Skills: Bilingual fluency in English and Korean (written and verbal) is required.
    • Experience: 2+ years of experience in freight brokerage, account management, or logistics operations, with hands-on drayage knowledge.
    • Communication Tools: Professional experience using KakaoTalk for client communications is preferred.
    • Education: High School diploma or equivalent required; a Bachelor's degree in Logistics, Supply Chain, or Business is preferred.
    • Technical Proficiency: Proficiency in Transportation Management Systems (TMS) and Microsoft Office / Google Workspace. Experience with MercuryGate TMS, DAT, FourKites, or Trucker Tools is a plus.
    • Problem Solving: Strong negotiation, problem-solving, and conflict-resolution abilities.
    • Travel & Flexibility: Ability to travel up to 20% between Des Plaines, IL, Elwood, IL, and customer sites as needed.
    What's In It for You:
    • Hybrid Flexibility: Work on-site 4 days per week out of either our Des Plaines, IL or Elwood, IL location with hybrid eligibility.
    • Career Development: Gain broad exposure across brokerage, asset fleet operations, and international customer management.
    • Inclusive Work Culture: Join an Equal Opportunity Employer that values diverse skills, backgrounds, and perspectives.
    • Comprehensive Benefits: Paid time off, a 401(k) match, and a competitive total rewards package.
