Job Description
Are you someone who thrives when things are busy? Do you enjoy a high-energy environment where you're constantly communicating, solving problems, and juggling multiple priorities? A leading transportation and logistics company in the Chattanooga area is looking for a Seasonal Customer Service Representative to join its team during the busy holiday peak season. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working at a fast pace and wants to gain valuable experience in the transportation and logistics industry. While this assignment is initially seasonal, top performers may be considered for a long-term opportunity if a permanent opening becomes available.

You don't need to come from a traditional logistics background to be successful. Individuals with experience in restaurants, hospitality, retail, call centers, or other high-volume customer-facing environments can be a great fit. If you've worked as a server, bartender, host, restaurant manager, or in another fast-paced role where you've had to constantly prioritize, communicate, problem-solve, and deliver great customer service under pressure, you may have many of the skills needed to succeed here.
