Seven Reasons To Consider A Career In logistics & Supply chain


1. Jobs are available in logistics for people of all education levels.
Logistics may seem like a complicated job that requires an advanced degree, but this depends on which facet of logistics you enter. Truck drivers, warehouse workers and forklift operators are all part of the logistics team, but they are organized and directed by mid-level managers and experienced logistics executives.

2. Advancement opportunities in logistics are plentiful.
Because logistics has so many facets and levels, opportunities for advancement are always available. In addition, the logistics industry tends to promote and train low-level employees to high-level positions rather than hire from the outside. Promotions are commonplace, and the hardest working and most innovative individuals can advance quickly.

3. Logistics careers can be started anywhere.
Unlike some careers that require you to relocate to a specific area or region, careers in logistics can begin anywhere. Nearly every company and organization has a need for logistics workers and managers. However, a few locations are known as hotspots of logistics activity, including yaba and ikeja.

4. Logistics careers are rarely boring.
The word boredom is not in the vocabularies of most people with careers in logistics. The sheer variety of work always keeps the job interesting, and crossover may occur when one facet is slow but another is bustling. In addition, many companies specializing in logistics deal with a wide variety of materials and goods.

5. Opportunities for women are expanding in logistics.
Logistics careers have traditionally been held by men, but women are becoming increasingly involved at all levels. Many women hold top positions in logistics companies and logistics departments.

6. Logistics is a stepping stone into the field of international business.
Many people who begin a career in logistics find that they quickly gain enough experience with international business to develop new skills or open new opportunities. Learning a second language is much easier when you are working with people who speak that language. In addition, it may be possible to relocate to other countries temporarily or permanently.

7. People working in logistics develop fraternal relationships.
People who have a career in logistics cite their coworkers as one of its great advantages. Logistics can be a demanding field, and those working in it develop a high level of pride in their jobs.

Today, logistics is very common and you must understand that this is a very difficult and responsible profession. Most logistics companies close very quickly because of unskilled employees and this is very sad to realize ... Nevertheless, there are very cool logistics companies like Freight Broker who are already very for a long time on the market and managed to establish themselves as real professionals. And their GTZ software provides fast quotation, booking and management, real-time tracking and analytics. I have not personally collaborated with them but I have heard a lot about this company.
