ABOUT OUR COMPANY

We are a U.S.-based transportation and logistics company headquartered in Southern California, specializing in trucking and freight transportation.

We currently operate a small fleet with plans for continued growth. We are seeking an experienced dispatcher to take ownership of our daily freight sourcing and dispatch operations.

This position will initially support two trucks and work directly with company ownership. As our operations expand, there will be opportunities to assume greater responsibility in dispatch management, operational planning, and potentially customer development.

We value reliability, responsiveness, adaptability, and strong problem-solving skills. Our goal is to build a disciplined, efficient, and scalable transportation operation.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

POSITION OVERVIEW

Your primary responsibility will be to find, evaluate, negotiate, and book profitable freight for our trucks using U.S. freight load boards.

We operate primarily in the spot freight market. Because opportunities appear throughout the day, this position requires active load-board monitoring, quick responses, and sound operational judgment.

You must be comfortable working independently within established guidelines while communicating clearly when a decision requires approval.

IMPORTANT: This is NOT an entry-level dispatch assistant position. We are specifically seeking someone with hands-on experience sourcing, negotiating, and booking U.S. trucking freight.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

1. FREIGHT SOURCING & NEGOTIATION

• Monitor freight load boards, including DAT and similar platforms.
• Identify suitable loads based on equipment, rates, deadhead, location, and scheduling.
• Contact brokers, negotiate competitive rates, and book approved freight.
• Proactively secure reloads and plan upcoming truck availability.
• Evaluate load profitability and operational feasibility.
• Identify valuable freight lanes, brokers, and recurring opportunities.

2. DISPATCH OPERATIONS

• Coordinate pickup and delivery information with drivers and brokers.
• Monitor load progress and communicate scheduling changes.
• Consider hours-of-service availability, transit times, and appointment requirements.
• Maintain accurate load details and dispatch records.
• Escalate operational conflicts and unusual situations promptly.

3. TRANSPORTATION ADMINISTRATION

• Organize rate confirmations, BOLs, PODs, and related documentation.
• Update transportation management systems, spreadsheets, and internal records.
• Assist with broker communications and documentation follow-up.
• Support operational reporting and administrative processes.

4. PROCESS IMPROVEMENT

• Help develop efficient and repeatable dispatch procedures.
• Prepare basic operational and performance reports.
• Use AI tools appropriately for research, drafting, reporting, and workflow improvements.
• Identify opportunities to improve freight coverage, profitability, and efficiency.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

✓ Previous professional experience dispatching freight for U.S. trucking companies.
✓ Proven experience independently sourcing, negotiating, and booking loads.
✓ Familiarity with U.S. freight load boards and broker communications.
✓ Understanding of dry van operations, deadhead, rate per mile, transit planning, and HOS.
✓ Excellent spoken and written English.
✓ Strong organization, attention to detail, and responsiveness.
✓ Ability to work independently and make sound operational decisions.
✓ Reliable internet, quiet workspace, and suitable headset.
✓ Willingness to learn new systems and AI-assisted workflows.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

+ Experience with DAT, Truckstop, TMS platforms, or ELD systems.
+ Experience dispatching multiple trucks and planning reloads.
+ Knowledge of freight documentation, factoring, and transportation compliance.
+ Familiarity with ChatGPT, Claude, or similar AI tools.
+ Broader logistics, transportation, or freight brokerage experience.
+ Spanish communication skills.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

WORK SCHEDULE

• Monday–Friday, approximately 40 working hours per week.
• Coverage generally falls between 5:00 AM and 5:00 PM Pacific Time.
• Daily hours vary depending on truck availability and freight requirements.
• Some days require earlier starts; others require later coverage.
• Schedules will be coordinated in advance, with reasonable flexibility and breaks.

Applicants must be comfortable working hours aligned with the U.S. Pacific Time Zone.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

COMPENSATION & GROWTH

• Starting compensation: $700–$800 USD/month, based on experience.
• Additional performance-based bonus opportunities.
• Work directly with company ownership.
• Opportunity to grow into an independent dispatch operations role.
• Potential future involvement in customer development and broader logistics operations.

Performance will be evaluated based on freight sourcing, negotiation quality, operational reliability, communication, and overall contribution.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

HOW TO APPLY

Please answer ALL five questions in your application:

1. Briefly describe your experience dispatching freight for U.S. trucking companies.

2. How many trucks have you personally dispatched, and what types of equipment have you worked with?

3. Which freight load boards and dispatch systems have you used?

4. Describe a recent load you personally sourced and negotiated. Include the lane, initial broker offer, and final agreed rate, if you remember them.

5. Confirm your availability to work flexible Pacific Time hours and provide your expected monthly compensation.

ATTENTION TO DETAIL:

Include the word "Bluebird" in the SUBJECT LINE of your application.

Shortlisted applicants will be invited to complete a brief dispatch-related assessment, followed by interviews.

We are looking for someone with genuine dispatch experience, strong judgment, and a long-term interest in growing with our company.
