About ARI Shipping

ARI Shipping Corporation is an established international freight forwarder, customs broker, and integrated logistics provider with more than 40 years of experience.

We specialize in international transportation and supply-chain solutions while maintaining the personalized service and entrepreneurial culture of a privately owned company.

We are growing and looking for an Air Freight Coordinator who wants more than just another operations job.

The right candidate will be highly organized, ambitious, resourceful, commercially minded, and motivated to advance their career. We want someone who takes ownership, solves problems before they become problems, and is constantly looking for a better way to serve customers, improve operations, and grow business.

This position will handle both air import and export operations while also participating in quoting, customer development, account growth, and sales opportunities.

Key Responsibilities

Coordinate air import and export shipments from start to finish
Manage bookings, routing, airline coordination, pickups, documentation, tracking, delivery, and shipment follow-up
Prepare and review airfreight documentation including MAWBs, HAWBs, commercial documentation, and export paperwork
Coordinate with airlines, overseas agents, truckers, warehouses, customs brokers, customers, and vendors
Ensure shipments comply with applicable TSA, IATA, export, security, and regulatory requirements
Monitor shipments proactively and communicate updates to customers before they need to ask
Identify potential delays, documentation issues, capacity problems, or operational risks and develop solutions
Obtain and negotiate rates with airlines, trucking companies, overseas agents, and other vendors
Prepare competitive customer quotations and follow up on open opportunities
Work with existing customers to identify additional lanes, services, and opportunities
Assist with prospecting and developing new airfreight business
Follow up with prospective customers and dormant accounts
Help convert inquiries and quotations into booked shipments
Build strong, long-term relationships with customers and overseas partners
Maintain accurate shipment records, follow-up schedules, quotations, customer notes, and operational documentation
Prioritize multiple urgent shipments and deadlines without allowing details to fall through the cracks
Look for ways to improve department efficiency, profitability, customer service, and productivity
Take ownership of problems and work independently to find solutions
Work closely with management to help expand ARI's airfreight business

What We're Looking For

Minimum 3 years of airfreight experience required.

PLEASE DO NOT APPLY UNLESS YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE; WE WILL KNOW VERY QUICKLY.

The ideal candidate is someone who is:

Experienced with both air import and export operations
Extremely organized and able to manage many shipments, deadlines, emails, quotes, and follow-ups simultaneously
Detail-oriented and accurate with documentation
Comfortable speaking with customers, vendors, airlines, and overseas agents
Sales-minded and comfortable asking for business and following up on opportunities
Motivated by performance and earning potential
A self-starter who does not need to be constantly supervised
Resourceful and able to think outside the box when problems arise
Proactive rather than reactive
Comfortable negotiating rates and finding creative routing solutions
Able to prioritize effectively in a fast-moving environment
Strong at written and verbal communication
Strong in problem-solving and analytical thinking
Comfortable working under pressure while maintaining a high level of customer service
Interested in building a career and taking on greater responsibility over time

Strong computer skills and familiarity with freight-forwarding/TMS software are expected.

Experience with Magaya is a plus.

The Person Who Will Succeed Here

This position is best suited for someone who doesn't want to simply process shipments all day.

We are looking for someone who sees an unanswered quote and follows up on it. Someone who sees a problem and finds a solution. Someone who notices an opportunity with a customer and pursues it.

You should be hungry to learn, hungry to grow, and motivated to make an impact.

For the right person, there is significant opportunity to expand your responsibilities, develop your own accounts, participate in the growth of the airfreight department, and advance within the company.

Compensation

Base Salary: $65,000–$75,000 per year, depending on experience

Additional earning opportunities include:

Performance bonuses
Christmas bonuses
Sales bonuses
Uncapped commission opportunities
Opportunities for increased responsibility and advancement
Travel
Professional certifications and classes, paid for by us

Benefits

Full-Time

Join ARI Shipping
