- Deliver Shipping Status Updates: Provide prompt, articulate, and professional logistics notifications across email and phone lines, keeping clients updated on transit timelines, unexpected delays, and custom clearance milestones.
- Manage Quebec & European Accounts: Tailor verbal and written communications to match the linguistic styles of European and Quebecois B2B accounts, maintaining a high-quality service profile across both markets.
- Handle Customer Care Escalations: Act as the initial line of support for incoming client delivery inquiries, resolving routing issues calmly and escalating high-value transport exceptions to senior management when necessary.

- Audit Customer Master Files: Maintain clean, accurate B2B account profiles in the database, verifying gate codes, site manager phone contacts, tax status documents, and localized delivery rules.
