Role Overview The Parcel Contract Intelligence Consultant is a key member of Loop's newest and fastest-growing division. This individual will serve as a trusted advisor to clients with significant shipping volumes, delivering high- impact, white-glove consulting services focused on reducing parcel spend and maximizing contract value.
