A generic term will optimize the job title to appear in a general job search of the same nature. The level of experience will help you attract the most qualified candidates by emphasizing the amount of responsibility and prior knowledge required. And if your position is specialized, consider including specialization in the job title.

A brief job description for a logistics coordinator position
