About Speed Xpress Inc.

Founded in 2022, SpeedX offers a superior last-mile delivery experience designed to better connect brands to customers. At SpeedX, we're more than just a delivery company – we're partners in success. We believe that ecommerce delivery shouldn't be a hassle, a financial strain, or a source of stress for businesses. We created a next-level delivery experience that's designed to meet business's needs, exceed their expectations, and future-proof their ecommerce business.

In just three years of business, we have grown our client list to over a dozen online marketplaces, 3PLs and direct retailers and are now delivering over 300,000 packages daily worldwide – with the number constantly growing. And we have no plans of slowing down.

About the role:

We are seeking a Dispatcher who excels in route assignments, driver communication, and real-time problem solving. In this critical role, you will be the central hub of communication for our Delivery Service Partners (DSPs) and drivers, ensuring the efficient execution of daily routes and the highest standards of delivery performance. This role is highly hands-on and requires constant presence on the dispatch floor—managing drivers, finalizing routes, solving issues quickly, and ensuring all packages leave the warehouse according to plan. The dispatch team is the final checkpoint, ensuring that every route leaves the building accurately, safely, and on time. This is not a desk or computer-heavy role. It is a floor-based operational control role requiring fast decision-making, clear communication, and strong situational awareness.

1. Operational Floor Presence

• Maintain a strong presence in the dispatch area during departures.
• Coordinate with warehouse staff to ensure totes and packages reach the correct routes.
• Identify and correct mis-sorts or missing packages before departure.
• Coordinate with maintenance and operations teams to confirm all vehicles are in safe and optimal working condition.
• Work with QA/QC on route exceptions requiring driver confirmation.

1. Problem Solving & Real-Time Decision Making

• Serve as the escalation point for complex dispatch issues, service failures, or compliance concerns.
• Coordinate responses to emergencies, delays, disruptions, incorrect loads, or delivery barriers quickly and efficiently ensuring minimal impact on service levels
• Reassign packages or stops to maintain service levels.
• Quickly address issues such as delays, incorrect loads, or delivery barriers.
• Assist operational leads with urgent issue resolution during dispatch peaks.

Requirements

• High school diploma or equivalent; additional education or training in logistics or a related field is preferred.
• Proven experience in dispatching routes, working with drivers/DSP, logistics, warehouse, or transportation operations is preferred
• Strong organizational and multitasking skills.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal abilities.
• Proficiency in using transportation management systems (TMS) and other relevant software or tools (route lists, scanners).
• Ability to work well under pressure, adapt to changing priorities and ability to make fast decisions in a time-sensitive environment.
• Knowledge of transportation regulations and safety guidelines.
• Availability to work flexible hours, including evenings and weekends, is required.
