From A to B – and deadlinesPhiline
Sounds like time pressure or? No need to worry, it’s a cinch with a little organisational talent. I coordinate the international and national transport of goods by land, water and air from my desk. In addition, I track the internal material flows so that the correct material always arrives on time at the right loading point. As part of my vocational training as a haulage and logistics services assistant at Volkswagen, I learn everything there is to know about the logistics processes within the plant. My tasks include issuing customs documents and shipping documents and confidently contacting customers, suppliers and hauliers from a number of different countries. I can maintain an overview easily at all times by recording everything in the system.
