As an entry-level logistician, your job is to manage the product and supply chain logistics for a company. This often involves understanding how items move within your industry, performing analysis of logistics data, and modeling the most effective routes for manufacturing and shipping needs. This is an entry-level job, so many employers use it as a type of extended training period that allows you to get hands-on experience with the logistics of their industry under the supervision of a more experienced employee. Entry-level logisticians often work on process improvement, implementing ways of tracking and measuring things, and creating reports. Some employers refer to this position as logistics analyst or logistics specialist.
