Join a Friendly, Fast-Paced Logistics Team

Looking for a new challenge in logistics where you’re more than just a number? This could be the perfect role for you.
We're working with a long-established freight forwarding company that’s all about reliable service, strong relationships, and making international shipping feel effortless for their clients.
They’re part of a larger group, financially secure, and growing – but still small enough that your ideas will be heard and your efforts noticed.
Whether you’re already in the industry or ready to take your next step, this is a brilliant opportunity to build a career in a sector where no two days are the same.

What your day might look like:
• New business development (internal and field sales)
• Key account management
• Speaking to customers, understanding their needs, and offering the right solutions
• Working with carriers, suppliers, and overseas agents to keep everything moving
• Creating quotes, booking shipments, and sorting out customs documentation
• Problem-solving and staying on top of all the details
• Spotting ways to improve service or grow existing accounts

What we’re hoping you bring:
• Some experience in freight, logistics, or a similar role would be great
• Confidence with communication – written, spoken, and over email
• A knack for multitasking and staying calm when things get busy
• Comfortable using Microsoft Office and freight/CRM systems
• A positive attitude and a genuine interest in how things move globally

Why you’ll enjoy working here:
• You’ll be part of a tight-knit, supportive team where everyone matters
• There’s space to grow – whether it’s developing your skills or moving up
• You’ll be trusted to take ownership and make decisions
• Competitive pay and rewards for doing a great job
