Logistics & Administration Coordinator Seafood Distribution (Edmonds, WA)
$65,000–$75,000 + full benefits | Full-time, on-site
Our client is a family-owned seafood company with nearly 30 years in business and is one of the leading suppliers of Alaska crab in the U.S. They're a small, close-knit team that's growing, and they need someone organized and hands-on to run the operational center of the business: getting frozen product to customers, keeping the books moving, and running the Edmonds office.
This role suits someone who likes variety. On a given day you might book a truck, chase a past-due invoice, and greet a customer coming in for a meeting.
What you'll do
- Coordinate customer shipments with the sales team and cold storage warehouses, and book trucking.
- Manage product transfers between cold storage and processing locations, and keep inventory records accurate.
- Negotiate freight and storage rates, track cost per shipment, and make sure freight is billed back to customers.
- Handle day-to-day AR/AP with the Controller: invoicing (including customer EDI portals), cash application, vendor payments, and wires.
- Own collections on past-due accounts, including follow-up and payment plans.
- Work with credit insurance providers on customer approvals, and support the annual audit.
- Run the office: phones, visitors, supplies, equipment, vendors, the landlord relationship, team events, and travel for leadership and the sales team.
What you bring
- 3–5 years in a logistics-heavy role. Frozen or refrigerated food distribution is ideal.
- 3–5 years of bookkeeping or AR/AP experience, including collections.
- Working knowledge of ground freight rates and scheduling.
- A bachelor's degree.
- Strong attention to detail, clear written communication, and a friendly, professional presence.
- A “nothing is beneath me” attitude. Everyone pitches in here.
