"Freight forwarder" makes it sound like I work in a mail room, but "architect of transport" just seems way too pretentious... I wish there were a more accurate job description for what I do!

Architect of transport is just too much hahaha. Freight forwarder sounds nice to me, What is so wrong with it?

Just say you haul out things. Hahaha works for me. As long as we're getting paid bud

Wait "Architect of Transportation" is way too clever to not use. You might have to use that one

Maybe Transportation Specialist? Sounds like a nice middle ground.

Now that you say it... it is kind of difficult to put in words. There are so many aspects of the job

You got some good ones though OP haha you're really good at this

Logistics Coordinator

I agree with you. Is freight forwarder a separate role at your company? Or do you just call it logistics coordinator?

The architect of transport is actually a fancy one. I'll wait for some companies to use this title. Haha
