ISTA Personnel Solutions is a dynamic and fast-growing BPO company. We are not a recruitment agency — we operate as a dedicated extension of our U.S.-based clients' teams, delivering high-quality service with precision, efficiency, and a personal touch.

Join our team serving a U.S.-based long-term care laboratory . You'll work closely with their dispatch and operations teams to coordinate medical sample pick-ups, communicate with healthcare facilities and drivers, and ensure smooth, on-time deliveries across the New York and New Jersey areas.

Role Overview

As a Dispatch Support Coordinator , you'll play a key role in managing day-to-day logistics operations for our client's laboratory services. This role goes beyond simple scheduling— you'll be responsible for handling late call-ins, route adjustments, and real-time problem-solving to ensure efficient pick-up coordination. The ideal candidate is proactive, quick-thinking, and comfortable making decisions in a fast‑paced environment.
