What does an intermodal planner do?

An Intermodal Planner is responsible for coordinating the movement of goods using multiple modes of transportation, such as rail, truck, and ship. They plan efficient routes, manage schedules, and ensure that shipments are delivered on time and within budget. Their role often involves working with carriers, customers, and logistics providers to optimize supply chain operations and reduce transportation costs. Intermodal Planners also address any issues that arise during transit and ensure compliance with regulations related to each transport mode.
