Who We Are
Arrive Logistics is a leading transportation and technology company in North America with plans to grow significantly year over year. Our success is a testament to our remarkable team and what we’re building together. We’re committed to providing employees with a meaningful work experience and have established an award-winning culture that supports personal and career development in a fun, casual, and collaborative environment.
Who We Want
We are looking for an analytical and decisive Operational Risk Analyst to join our Risk team. In this role, you will serve as a guardian of Arrive’s operations, working directly with the Risk team to minimize exposure and financial loss.
You aren’t just analyzing data; you are stepping into high-pressure situations to resolve complex logistical issues - from accident mitigation to hostage load negotiations and theft recovery. If you possess strong critical thinking skills, composure under pressure, and a deep understanding of logistics supply chains, we want to hear from you.
What You'll Do
Risk Identification & Crisis Management:
• Identify, assess, and analyze operational risks associated with daily logistics activities, including transportation accidents, cargo theft, and warehousing disputes.
• Lead negotiations on high-stakes incidents, including hostage loads and tow negotiations, to minimize financial impact and operational delay.
Strategy & Compliance:
• Conduct comprehensive risk assessments and develop mitigation plans to reduce the likelihood of recurring issues.
• Collaborate with internal teams to ensure strict compliance with federal laws, insurance requirements, and regulations related to logistics activities.
• Audit operational risk records regularly to ensure data integrity and accuracy.
Analysis & Education:
• Analyze historical data to identify patterns, trends, and root causes of operational risk events.
• Provide expert guidance to internal stakeholders on risk management best practices.
• Develop and deliver training programs to heighten risk awareness across the organization.
• Identify opportunities for continuous improvement within the risk workflow.
Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Logistics, Supply Chain Management, Business Administration, or a related field (Preferred).
- 3–5 years of experience in operational risk management, claims adjusting, or logistics operations.
- Logistics Expertise: Strong knowledge of transportation operations, carrier vetting, and insurance protocols.
- Crisis Management: Proven ability to handle high-stress situations (e.g., hostage loads) with professional judgment.
- Analytical Mindset: Robust risk analysis skills with the ability to spot trends in complex data.
- Communication: Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to explain complex risk concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
- Financial Acumen: Basic understanding of accounting processes and how operational risk impacts the bottom line.
- Autonomy: Solid work ethic with the ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment.
