Tusk Logistics - Customer Success Manager

Chicago, United States
Full-Time

WHAT IS TUSK LOGISTICS

Tusk Logistics is a new type of small parcel shipping infrastructure that enables parcel shippers to easily and scalably access delivery service from the best alternative parcel carriers nationwide. Shippers leverage Tusk’s technology and operational expertise to diversify away from FedEx, UPS and USPS – lowering their parcel delivery spend and increasing their operational flexibility. Tusk’s technology is the first of its kind, unifying services from alternative carriers nationwide into a single API with proactive support on every parcel, enabling Shippers to anticipate and solve their customers’ delivery issues in real time. 

Tusk’s co-founders Ben and Adam have deep industry experience, with long tenures at eCommerce shipping/logistics leaders like Shippo, ShipBob, and Google Shopping. Tusk is venture backed and is currently a team of five, based in Chicago. We work in-person four days per week. 

TUSK’S CORE VALUES

  • Shippers first: Tusk exists to create value for our Shippers – lower costs, better service, increased visibility and control on every parcel.
  • Honesty: Honesty begets trust – for our team, our shippers, and our partners.

With your technical aptitude, you’ll navigate various tools and softwares to not only solve shipper problems, but also to build the processes and tools that improve Tusk’s overall network reliability and performance.
