The Opportunity:
We are working with a well-established, close-knit freight forwarding business where every team member plays a vital role in keeping operations running smoothly. With a team of just 8 people, this is an environment where you are truly valued - not just another number.

Requirements
Strong, hands-on experience in import customs clearance (essential)
Fully conversant with CDS, CNS, Destin8, ORP, and IRP procedures
Experience managing the full customs process end-to-end (essential - candidates without this will not be considered)
Good understanding of import freight forwarding across multiple modes
A team player with a willingness to support and learn other areas of the business
Multifreight system experience would be advantageous
What's on Offer
Salary circa £31,000 - £35,000 depending on experience
Stable, long-term opportunity within a highly experienced team
Supportive environment with training available to expand into other freight modes
