About The Position

BLG LOGISTICS is a third-party coordination service provider with a strong, centuries-old reputation for excellence. We combine passion with pragmatism and American innovation with German precision to develop sophisticated, future-oriented solutions. Our customers include both retail and manufacturing organizations at all levels of the supply chain. Today, the BLG Group has almost 100 locations and branches in Europe, America, and Africa. BLG GROUP aims to be climate-neutral by 2030. In fact, we are the first German coordination service provider with a scientifically recognized climate protection goal. BLG GROUP currently employs roughly 20,000 people globally. As an employer, we have an unwavering goal to be an employer of choice within our industry and the geographies in which we do business. We value and seek out our employees' feedback and ideas and keep our eyes firmly on the future. We do not just “talk the talk” when we say we want to be an employer of choice. We have completely overhauled our benefits and rewards program to provide excellent options and coverage to our employees at an affordable rate and allow them to save for and invest in their future and focus on wellness. We also offer on-site diagnostic services and vaccines at no charge to help our employees get ahead with their wellness! Our healthcare coverage includes medical, dental and vision benefits to our employees at no cost, and employees can add family members at a significantly subsidized rate. We also offer, at company expense, short term disability, long term disability, group life insurance, and accidental death & dismemberment (AD&D) coverages. Employees can choose to add extra life insurance and AD&D for themselves and their families at competitive rates. We also offer supplemental programs including cancer insurance, accident protection, supplemental disability, critical care, and medical bridge coverage. We even offer pet insurance for your furry family members! Savings on healthcare create an opportunity for our employees to invest in our matching Safe Harbor & Roth 401k retirement plan, where the company will match up to 4% of contributions with immediate vesting. We also believe that time away means healthy and happy employees, and we have a generous PTO & Personal Days policy that further enhances our 12 paid holidays and an additional day off for birthday celebrations. And we are not complete yet! We will continue to research and refine the wellness and lifestyle offerings to our team.
