As a Logistician you could be sourcing overseas freight and distribution agencies, updating the product database, investigating the root cause of a late delivery and subsequent production halt, providing support documentation to the accounts department, preparing a detailed cost analysis of international vs. domestic inventory sourcing, or meeting with the executive team to discuss the upcoming budget allocation.
