Great Companies Need Great People Behind the Scenes, Too. AWH Logistics is looking for a highly organized, positive, and dependable Administrative Assistant to support our growing transportation company. This isn't a position where every day looks the same.

A manager may need help with one project while recruiting needs assistance with another, and something unexpected will inevitably land on your desk in between. We're looking for someone who enjoys that kind of environment. Someone who communicates well, stays organized, follows through, and can move between multiple priorities without losing track of the details.

But they do need to be someone we can count on. We're looking for: * Excellent verbal and written communication skills * Strong organization and time-management skills * Ability to manage multiple tasks and changing priorities * Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced environment * Strong attention to detail * Positive attitude and willingness to help * Dependability and consistent follow-through * Good judgment and ability to handle confidential information professionally * Basic computer proficiency, including email, Microsoft Word, Excel, and internet-based systems * Comfortable learning new technology and software * Ability to work independently while also being a strong team player Experience That Will Make You Stand Out: These aren't all required, but they're definitely a plus: * BambooHR or other Applicant Tracking System (ATS) experience * Recruiting or hiring experience * QuickBooks experience * Business social media experience, including creating, scheduling, and publishing company posts * Experience with Facebook, LinkedIn, or other business social media platforms * Transportation, trucking, logistics, or operations experience * Previous administrative or office-support experience * Microsoft Outlook and Excel experience Compensation: $47,000–$53,000 annually, based on experience and qualifications. Why AWH? AWH Logistics is a privately owned transportation company operating nearly 200 trucks and more than 250 daily routes throughout the Midwest. We've grown, but we haven't forgotten what makes a company work: people. We value people who communicate, take ownership, help each other, and aren't afraid to jump in when something needs to get done. You'll work with Leadership You'll Actually Know in an environment where your contribution matters and where there is opportunity to learn, take on additional responsibility, and grow with the company. And while this position isn't behind the wheel, you'll be supporting the people who are. WE NEVER FORGET WHO MOVES THE FREIGHT.
