About UPS & Our Culture

Behind every clean sort shift at a UPS fulfillment center is a Fulfillment Coordinator who planned it — managing staffing assignments, monitoring real-time throughput targets, and adjusting operational variables before they become problems that miss departure deadlines. Our fulfillment coordinator jobs sit at the intersection of floor operations and administrative logistics, making them the most strategically visible non-supervisory positions in the hourly associate lineup. At UPS, the coordinator role is the formal bridge between the sort floor and the operations management team — and the associates who perform it consistently become the first promoted into Process Assistant and supervisor positions when openings arise. If you are searching for fulfillment coordinator jobs near me with a Teamsters union wage, genuine administrative responsibility, and a defined career runway into management, UPS is where that search ends.

What Our Team Says (Employee Reviews)

"Being a Fulfillment Coordinator at UPS means you are the person the sort supervisor calls when something goes sideways. I manage the shift staffing board, I track throughput against the hourly plan, I communicate with the dock team about trailer departure readiness, and I flag any gap between where we are and where we need to be before it costs us a departure. The Teamsters wage for a coordinator role is strong, the visibility with management is real, and I have already been nominated for a Process Assistant position after 14 months. This is the most career-accelerating fulfillment coordinator job I have found in logistics." - Current Fulfillment Coordinator, Chicago, IL.

Role Overview & Responsibilities

As a UPS Fulfillment Coordinator, you support the shift supervisor in managing the daily operational execution of our fulfillment center — tracking staffing, monitoring throughput metrics on the Sort Manager dashboard, coordinating dock door assignments, and communicating operational status updates to the management team throughout the active sort window.

• Staffing Board Management: Maintain the real-time shift staffing board throughout the sort window — recording associate assignments, tracking break rotations, documenting any early departures or call-outs, and communicating headcount gaps to the supervisor immediately so labor redistribution decisions are made with accurate information rather than estimates.
• Throughput Metric Monitoring: Pull hourly throughput reports from the Sort Manager dashboard and compare actual packages-per-hour against the shift plan target, flagging any section running more than 8 percent below plan to the supervisor with the specific belt section ID, current rate, and elapsed deficit volume so corrective action can be deployed before the gap compounds.
• Departure Readiness Coordination: Communicate with the dock shipping team every 30 minutes during the active sort window, confirming each trailer's loading percentage against the departure schedule and escalating any trailer projecting a late seal to the operations manager at least 45 minutes before its hard departure time.

Benefits & Perks

UPS Fulfillment Coordinators earn a coordination-role premium on top of the standard Teamsters handler base rate, full Teamsters medical, dental, and vision benefits, pension accrual at the contractual service credit rate, paid personal days, and UPS Earn & Learn tuition assistance depositing up to $5,250 annually toward your accredited degree. This role is the clearest non-supervisor pathway to UPS Process Assistant advancement in our entire fulfillment associate lineup.
