  • Using freight forwarding systems (CargoWise experience advantageous but not essential)

What We're Looking For

  • Around 3+ years' experience working in freight forwarding or logistics

  • A solid foundation in air or ocean exports (multimodal training provided)

  • Comfortable working in fast-paced, time-critical environments

  • Previous experience in events, exhibitions, entertainment, AOG or specialist logistics is highly desirable

  • Strong communication and organisational skills

  • A proactive mindset with a willingness to learn and adapt

  • Must be able to commute reliably to the office and drive if required

What's On Offer

  • £32,000 - £34,000 salary based on experience

  • Office-based role in a positive, open-plan working environment

  • Supportive team with a great mix of experience and backgrounds

  • Training across additional freight modes

  • Long-term progression within a specialist logistics sector
