About the role:

Dispatchers are the nucleus of our organization. This job role is fast paced, and it changes not only every day, but at times hourly and even faster. The overnight dispatch position has several responsibilities and takes a special person for the role. Our transportation services range from airport transfers, high-profile weddings, major conferences, concerts, and sporting events.

This requires someone who is computer savvy with technology, dispatching systems, has strong attention to detail and multitasking skills who can work independently.

 

Reservations:

During the overnight hours, all incoming calls feed into dispatch and the overnight dispatcher will be responsible for handling and entering any reservations client’s call in to request along with providing quotes as requested. Experience with reservation systems or the ability to quickly learn the technology is a must. Dispatchers spend one-two weeks in the Reservations Department, so we provide proper training.

 

Emails/Inbox:

The Overnight Dispatcher will need to respond to these emails, so the person in this position needs to know proper grammar and how to professionally respond to clients and vendors.
