LTL Operations Specialist (Remote)

About the job

ARS Logistics (Authorized Agent of Trinity Logistics) is a family owned and operated Third Party Logistics company with 20+ years of history. We are proud of what we have built through strong and lasting relationships with our customers and team members.

The LTL Operations Specialist is responsible for delivering operationally excellent transportation services within our less-than-truckload (LTL) division. This role manages the day-to-day execution of LTL shipments, serving as the key link between carriers, internal stakeholders, and customer representatives. The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, solutions-driven, and thrives in a fast-paced logistics environment.

Start Date: ASAP

Why you’ll like working here

• Direct impact — you own the LTL outcome for our customers, and the team relies on your judgment.

• Real problem-solving — reclasses, reweighs, OS&D, missed pickups; no two days are the same.

• Collaborative team — a supportive group of logistics professionals who value open communication and follow-through.

• Structured upward mobility — clear growth path within the company as the LTL division scales.

What you’ll do

• Track and trace LTL and common-carrier shipments from booking through delivery; proactively identify and communicate exceptions, delays and service failures before the customer has to ask.

• Review LTL invoices and freight bills for discrepancies (reweighs, reclasses, accessorials, duplicate billing) and advise the customer service and account management teams on billing exceptions, disputes and resolution.

• Guide customer-facing teams on proper LTL order construction — freight class (NMFC), packaging, dimensions, weight and carrier selection — to optimize cost, service and compliance.

• Coordinate with LTL carriers on overages, shortages and damages (OS&D) and manage freight claims through to resolution on behalf of our customers and the company.

• Monitor LTL carrier performance — on-time %, exception rates and service trends — and report findings to management.

• Maintain accurate, timely data in the TMS; identify efficiency, cost-saving and process improvements and help implement them.

• Support general LTL operations as needed: system updates, reporting, customer-facing documentation and rate analysis.

What you need to bring

• 2+ years of hands-on LTL experience at a freight brokerage / 3PL or an LTL carrier (customer service, operations, billing or claims).

• Working knowledge of NMFC freight classification, density-based pricing, accessorials and how to read an LTL freight bill.

• Experience with a brokerage TMS and LTL carrier portals (booking, tracking, documents, disputes).

• Clear, professional written and spoken English — you will be corresponding with U.S. carriers and customers daily.
