## About the job

The Operations (Ops) Team is responsible for organizing and coordinating the international transportation needs of our clients. Serving as the primary point of contact, the Ops team acts as a bridge between our customers and our carefully chosen service providers. The team plays a crucial role in ensuring an exceptional customer experience at OVRSEA. Reactivity, excellence, pedagogy, and customer awareness are the guiding principles that drive our team.

This position is based in our Miami office.

## What does it mean to be an Ops Associate at OVRSEA?

As an Operations Associate, you will be the primary coordinator of international transport, managing our service providers, including agents, shipping and trucking carriers, and customs brokers. You will keep clients informed about their shipment progress, update them on key stages, guide them through challenges, and provide the best possible solutions when necessary.

Committed to delivering high-quality service, prompt responsiveness, and reliability, you will drive OVRSEA's growth with the following responsibilities:

### Global transport operations for large imports or exports (70%)

- Manage a portfolio of customers.

- Coordinate and organize air, sea, road, and rail transport.

- Advise customers and proactively resolve issues.

### Operational planning and pricing of international transport (10%)

- Response to customer requests for quotations: complete planning of international transport by sea, air and rail.

- Participation in the improvement loop between quotation, operations and invoicing: be able to step back and improve upstream to make operations run more smoothly and invoicing easier.

### Manage customer invoicing (10%)

- Participation in the invoicing of transport files.

- Manage the contact with customers to explain the differences that may appear between the quotation and the billing.

### Development and structuring (10%)

- Manage supplier relationships and negotiations (carriers & agents worldwide).

- Develop the team’s knowledge (research and production of articles).

- Refine operational strategies.

## What will this job bring you?

- Relational skills: you will interact with people from more than 70+ countries (customers, service providers), from various industries and company sizes.

- We value a strong learning environment at OVRSEA. Continuous learning is very important to us, which will allow you to solve rather complicated problems.

- We have a team with different backgrounds: some experienced in the world of transport and others who have never done it before. This balance guarantees a dynamic and close-knit atmosphere in the face of an intense day-to-day.

## Your preferred experience:

- You demonstrate an interest in the transport industry. You are curious by nature, and are never satisfied with the answer “we’ve always done it this way”. Experience with a forwarding agent is a plus, but not essential.

- You can handle challenging situations: Ops days in transportation are exciting but intense. Lots of issues and requests at the same time, and non-stop deadlines. You think solutions rather than problems, and you are able to take initiative.

- You have a strong interest in the startup environment, and you want to commit to an exciting entrepreneurial adventure.

## Why join us at OVRSEA? 💚

- Join a corporate backed tech startup for an incredible human adventure. Together, let's make a huge impact on the international transport revolution!

- Be part of our team of ambitious and talented individuals who share our values: analytical thinking, quality execution, and a deep thirst for learning.

- Experience a personalized onboarding program and a clear career trajectory with defined career paths for each team, setting you up for success from day one.

- Work in a vibrant work environment and take on challenging projects, collaborating with other teams while enjoying a high level of ownership and autonomy.

- Engage in exciting events, including weekly culture presentations (the famous OVRSEA “PICs”), learning sessions, team rituals, and great parties!

## US Benefits

- Competitive salary package.

- Health insurance & good PTO policy.

- Vibrant work environment & great offices in central location in Miami (hybrid work).

- Commuter benefits.

- 401k plan which kicks in after having reached a 4-month seniority within the company.
