Freight forwarding recruitment

We place the permanent forwarders, clerks and customs specialists who keep global shipments moving, documented and compliant across air, sea and road freight.

Freight Forwarding

Specialists who keep goods moving

Freight forwarding runs on detail and trust. One mis-keyed declaration or missed deadline can hold a whole shipment at the border — so the people behind the operation matter enormously.

From air and sea to road freight, forwarding demands people who can juggle carriers, customers, documentation and customs compliance without dropping a single ball. Since the UK's post-Brexit border changes, experienced customs and compliance talent has become especially hard to find — and especially valuable.

We recruit permanent freight forwarding professionals across the UK, from import/export clerks to branch managers. As specialists, we understand the difference between a good forwarder and a great one, and we know where the experienced customs people are when you need them.

Roles we recruit

Typical positions we recruit

Permanent freight forwarding and customs roles, from the operations desk to branch leadership.

What we fix

Hiring challenges we solve

Scarce customs talent

Post-Brexit, experienced customs and compliance people are in short supply. We hold relationships with the specialists who can keep your declarations clean.

Detail under pressure

Forwarding is unforgiving of error. We screen for the accuracy and composure that keep shipments compliant when deadlines are tight.

Branch leadership

A branch lives or dies by its manager. We find operations and branch leaders who grow service, retain staff and protect margin.
