Truck dispatchers coordinate the transportation of goods by truck with drivers, suppliers, and customers. As a truck dispatcher, you work with vendors, clients, drivers, and other logistics personnel by phone, email, or in person. Truck dispatchers use computer systems to track delivery trucks as they are en route, ensuring that the goods arrive on-time and undamaged. If there are any issues along the way, such as severe weather or a vehicle maintenance problem, the truck dispatcher is responsible for informing the receiving company. In such instances, the dispatcher may also be required to make arrangements for repair or send a new truck to make the delivery.
