Employment of logisticians is expected to grow as companies and government agencies increasingly rely on these workers to move products more efficiently, solve problems, and identify areas for improvement. As e-commerce continues to expand, these workers will be needed to help with the complex logistics involved, such as just-in-time delivery to consumers. In addition, as more goods are purchased online, timeliness of delivery will become a more critical component of firm competition, further increasing demand for logisticians.
