## Description

This role combines practical logistics knowledge with commercial strategy to develop competitive, profitable transportation solutions across heavy haul, project logistics, international freight, and energy infrastructure supply chains. Working closely with senior leadership and cross-functional teams, this individual will improve pricing tools and processes, evaluate business opportunities, and turn complex data into actionable recommendations.
What You'll Do:

 * Develop customer-specific logistics solutions and pricing recommendations, using cost models to evaluate routing, transportation modes, and distribution strategies that balance service, operational feasibility, and profitability.
 * Research transportation markets, source carrier and supplier pricing, and maintain rate schedules, market benchmarks, and historical cost data.
 * Evaluate carrier rates, accessorial charges, transit times, capacity, and service capabilities to support sourcing decisions and customer commitments.
 * Collaborate with commercial and operations teams on customer proposals, requests for proposals (RFPs), and strategic account development.
 * Support carrier negotiations, preferred-provider relationships, and strategic sourcing initiatives.
 * Evaluate pricing scenarios, margin sensitivity, volume commitments, and commercial terms, including master service agreements and fuel surcharge structures.
 * Compare quoted and actual costs to identify pricing discrepancies, margin erosion, and opportunities for improvement.
 * Develop and maintain pricing calculators, analytical tools, and standardized workflows that automate repetitive tasks and improve data quality, accuracy, documentation, and efficiency.
 * Analyze revenue, gross profit, transportation spend, carrier performance, customer activity, and project financial results. Develop forecasts, dashboards, and scenario models to identify cost savings, profitability opportunities, and business trends.
 * Partner with senior leadership on business planning, commercial opportunities, and operational improvement initiatives. Prepare clear recommendations and executive presentations, coordinate cross-functional assignments, and drive action items through completion.
