Schedule: 2-2-3 rotation (work 2 days, off 2 days, work 3 days - every other weekend)
Join Avery Dennison as a Shipping Coordinator on our C-Team night shift. Please note: This is a 100% administrative, desk-based logistics control role—not a physical forklift or loading position.
You will serve as the critical operational "bridge" between our digital inventory systems (Oracle/TMS) and the physical shipping floor—connecting loaders, trailers, carriers, and Customer Service in real time. Acting as the air-traffic controller for outbound and inbound freight, you will thrive in a fast-paced environment that features periods of high urgency, rapid computer multitasking, and constant communication with a diverse network of truck drivers and internal floor teams.
Key Responsibilities
Serve as the Floor-to-System Bridge: Direct loader assignments, manage trailer schedules, and verify physical pallet counts against digital inventory records in Oracle and TMS.
High-Volume Computer Multitasking: Simultaneously manage ERP transactions, carrier portals, email threads, and dock schedules with high accuracy during peak shipping rushes.
Driver & Carrier Communication: Serve as the primary point of contact at the shipping window—checking in carriers with patience, clarity, and professionalism, even when navigating communication barriers or tight delivery windows.
Shipping Documentation & Accountability: Accurately generate, verify, and file Bills of Lading (BOLs), packing lists, customer sales orders, transfer orders, vendor returns, and receiving paperwork.
Cross-Functional Expediting: Partner with Customer Service, Finishing, and Supply Chain teams to troubleshoot discrepancies and execute same-day, rush shipments without losing composure.
Safety & Continuous Improvement: Champion site safety rules, adhere to quality Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), and participate in shift pass-downs and continuous improvement efforts
High School Diploma or GED required.
3+ years of experience in shipping/receiving administration, freight dispatch, logistics coordination, or high-volume warehouse office operations.
Strong computer literacy and multitasking ability—proven comfort juggling multiple screens, spreadsheets, email, and ERP/WMS platforms (such as Oracle, SAP, or TMS) simultaneously.
Exceptional interpersonal bearing, patience, and communication skills, including experience working effectively across language and cultural barriers with drivers and floor personnel.
Ability to stay calm, organized, and decisive during high-stress rushes and shifting priorities.
Willingness to work a 12-hour overnight 2-2-3 schedule and occasional overtime as needed.
Ability to obtain a Forklift Operator’s license and lift up to 50 lbs for occasional backup or physical inventory verification as required.
