Air Logistics Healthcare Operational Care Specialist

Kuehne+Nagel • Jamaica, NY • 2w ago

C'est plus qu'un métier

Chez Kuehne+Nagel, le transport c'est bien plus qu'acheminer de la marchandise. Chaque jour, grâce à votre expertise, des produits du quotidien mais également des produits à forte valeur ajoutée arrivent auprès de ceux qui en ont besoin : des pièces d'avion livrées en urgence à l'aéroport, des cellules souches expédiées dans un strict respect des mesures de sécurité, etc. Chez Kuehne+Nagel, chaque mission fait la différence. Et la vôtre encore plus que vous ne l'imaginez.

We are looking for a detail-oriented and customer-focused Air Logistics Healthcare Operational Care Specialist to support time-critical, temperature-sensitive shipments within our healthcare and life sciences network. In this role, you will monitor shipments end-to-end, proactively manage exceptions, and collaborate closely with internal teams, service partners, and airlines to ensure consistent, compliant, and high-quality service for our customers.

This position is ideal for logistics professionals who thrive in fast-paced environments, demonstrate strong problem-solving skills, and are passionate about delivering excellence in healthcare logistics.

How you create impact

Monitor and track healthcare and life sciences shipments through active alarm management and milestone verification

Ensure all time- and temperature-sensitive shipments remain compliant throughout transit

Communicate effectively with airlines, carriers, and service partners to resolve issues and maintain service standards

Collaborate closely with Customer Service, CRMs, and Key Account Managers to maximize client satisfaction

Identify, investigate, and escalate discrepancies or service disruptions, keeping management and customers informed

Manage inbound bookings and operational inquiries through shared mailboxes and phone communication

Maintain accurate shipment documentation in compliance with country regulations, GDP, and ISO requirements

Support quality control processes by identifying gaps and recommending service or productivity improvements

Utilize internal systems (including Quick Enterprise systems and QuickTrac) to ensure operational accuracy

Promote teamwork, professionalism, and adherence to company policies and training requirements

Must be able to work overnight as this shift hours will be between 22:00pm-6:00am

What we would like you to bring

2+ years of experience in air courier, freight forwarding, or logistics operations (healthcare or cold chain preferred)

Strong understanding of time-critical, temperature-controlled, or biopharmaceutical shipments

Proficiency in MS Office and logistics operating systems; strong written and verbal English skills required

Ability to work under pressure with flexibility for off-hours schedules, including evenings or holidays as needed

IATA Dangerous Goods certification and second-language fluency are strong assets

This position is not eligible for employment visa sponsorship. Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis without the need for current or future employer sponsorship.
