Full Job Description

Flatbed Transportation Manager

Kahn Steel Company, Inc., a nationwide steel distributor headquartered in Kansas City, Missouri, is seeking an experienced Flatbed Transportation Manager to oversee the movement of flatbed shipments throughout the United States.

This position is responsible for securing transportation, negotiating freight rates, building long-term relationships with direct carriers, and ensuring shipments are delivered safely, efficiently, and on schedule. We do not use freight brokers, so experience working directly with trucking companies and owner-operators is essential.

The ideal candidate will have a strong understanding of flatbed transportation, DOT regulations, load securement requirements, and today's freight market. This individual must be able to think independently, negotiate effectively, manage multiple priorities, and communicate professionally with customers, carriers, warehouses, and our sales team.

Responsibilities

Book flatbed trucks for outbound shipments throughout the United States.
Develop and maintain relationships with direct trucking companies and owner-operators.
Negotiate competitive freight rates and establish carrier agreements.
Use transportation platforms such as DAT, Truckstop.com, RMIS, or similar carrier management systems.
Coordinate pickup and delivery schedules for multiple warehouse and customer locations.
Schedule loading and unloading appointments.
Track shipments and proactively resolve transportation issues.
Communicate effectively with customers, warehouses, trucking companies, and the sales team to ensure timely deliveries.
Maintain transportation records, carrier documentation, and shipping records.
Monitor freight market conditions to secure the best available capacity and pricing.
Assist the shipping department and yard personnel as needed to keep freight moving efficiently.

Qualifications

Minimum of 2 years of experience in flatbed transportation, freight dispatch, transportation management, or logistics.
Experience working directly with trucking companies and owner-operators.
Experience using RMIS, or similar transportation and carrier management systems.
Strong knowledge of flatbed freight operations, including DOT regulations, load securement requirements, hours-of-service regulations, and transportation compliance.
Strong negotiating skills with the ability to build lasting carrier relationships.
Excellent communication, organization, and problem-solving skills.
Ability to manage multiple shipments while maintaining a high level of accuracy.
Proficient in Microsoft Office applications.

Physical & Work Environment

While this position is primarily office-based, the Transportation Manager is expected to assist with yard operations when necessary.

The successful candidate must be able to:

Work outdoors in all weather conditions, including extreme heat and cold.
Walk throughout the yard and warehouse as needed.
Move dunnage and other loading materials.
Assist with banding pipe and preparing loads for shipment.
Coordinate directly with yard personnel to ensure loads are ready for pickup.
Lift and carry materials as required and perform other physical duties that support daily shipping operations.
