• Use dispatch and transportation knowledge to coordinate logistics related to vehicle recovery and ensure all parties are aligned on timing and requirements.
• Leverage customer service skills to build rapport with external partners and clients, de-escalate tense conversations, and maintain a professional demeanor.
• Utilize Microsoft Office and other internal tools to track account status, record communications, and prepare documentation related to impound resolution.
• Collaborate with internal teams and the broader vendor network to ensure accurate information flow and efficient recovery operations.
