Cross Functional Collaboration
- Work closely with Customer Service and Sales to resolve customer‑facing order and shipment issues
- Partner with Finance to support invoice accuracy, reconciliation, and dispute resolution
- Collaborate with internal IT and external vendors to resolve VAN, mapping, or integration issues
