Juan Sanchez

Logistics Coordinator @ Lean Solutions Group

About

With over 20 years in international logistics, supply chain management, procurement planning and sales, including 6 years in the USA trucking industry, I excel at optimizing freight operations, pricing strategies. Bilingual (C1 proficiency), I have a proven ability to manage fleet operations, coordinate inbound logistics, and drive efficiency in time and cost management. In the past year, I have worked as an independent contractor, providing dispatching services to U.S. carrier companies, further broadening my expertise in this niche. I’m eager to expand my knowledge and experience in brokerage, carrier sales, drayage, multimodal transport, and port operations, while continuing to thrive in dynamic and multicultural environments. Key strengths include leadership, strategic negotiation, and fostering partnerships with vendors, customers, brokers, and third-party suppliers. I have also demonstrated success in sales and distribution, consistently exceeding targets and delivering tailored solutions to meet customer needs across diverse industries.
