Full Job Description

Overview:

Join Reynolds Consumer Products…and Drive Your Career across a world of opportunities! We provide amazing job opportunities for growth with competitive salaries and benefits in an exciting, dynamic, fast-paced, and high-performance organization. Are you looking to build a strong career? Then we have an opportunity for you! We are searching for a Transportation Planner to join our team located at our corporate headquarters in Lake Forest, IL.

Responsibilities:

Your Role:

As a Transportation Planner, you will optimize the daily load plan and freight tendering for your assigned regions. You will balance customer service requirements for on-time delivery, ensuring carrier compliance while maintaining cost effectiveness. Leveraging systemic routing tools as well as manual shipment planning and load tracking, you will work with carriers across multiple modes of transportation to select and execute the most optimal transport plan from order entry to final delivery. The selected candidate will have the opportunity to work with existing team members to identify and provide recommendations for process efficiencies, service improvements, and cost reductions.

You will have the opportunity to Make Great Things Happen!

Monitor site shipment and load queries in the TMS continuously throughout the day. Ensure orders are optimized where possible, mode compliance is reviewed, and capacity is secured in a timely fashion to allow for execution. Gather, document, and communicate reason codes for exceptions. Report out weekly/monthly for your respective responsibilities.
Partner closely with warehouse teams and carriers to coordinate equipment availability, scheduling, and resolve any shipping constraints.
Identify gaps in transportation capacity, initiate communication with routing guide carriers, and escalate where necessary to ensure capacity is secured. Responsible for executing freight-auction and spot-market decisions when routing guide capacity has been exhausted.
Daily interaction with carriers to identify and resolve service and capacity issues, escalating with management as necessary. Provide input and feedback into the Carrier Scorecard on a monthly basis. Build and maintain collaborative relationships with RCP partner-carriers.
Execute responsive transportation support for short lead time shipments, expedite requests, mode conversions, and other unplanned activities.
Monitor and manage lane and load level costs, including accessorial review and approvals.
Support the development of standard operating procedures (SOPs), training materials, KPI tracking, project initiatives, and ongoing process improvement efforts. Analyze transportation data to identify inefficiencies and opportunities for improvement. Align with corporate goals (e.g., cost reduction, sustainability, service improvement).

You will love it here if…

You put safety first, always.
You listen, learn, and evolve.
You are passionate about collaboration, teamwork, and achieving shared goals.
You treat all people with respect, operating ethically, and embrace inclusivity.
You are committed to improving our impact on local communities.

Qualifications:

We need you to have:

BA/BS degree in Logistics or a related field
2-4 years of relatable experience in transportation planning, dispatch operations, customer service, scheduling, driver/fleet management, or distribution operations in a multi-facility environment is preferred.
The ideal candidate demonstrates attention to detail and carries an analytical mindset with strong communication and interpersonal skills.
Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Access, PowerPoint, etc) preferred.

Icing on the cake:

Proficiency with SAP and/or BlueYonder TMS is a plus.

If you answer yes to the following…we want to meet you!

Intellectual Curiosity: Do you have an inquisitive nature?
Problem Solving: Do you have a knack for tackling issues head-on?
Entrepreneurship: Do you enjoy taking ownership of your work?
Customer Centricity: Do you always act in the best interests of the customer, putting their needs first?
