- Handle shipments involving ADR goods
What we are looking for
- A minimum of five years' European road-freight experience
- Previous experience in a freight-forwarding environment
- Knowledge of UK and EU customs procedures
- Experience managing European cross-trade movements
- Familiarity with ADR shipments
- Strong communication and customer-service skills
- The ability to work independently and as part of a team
- A self-motivated and organised approach
- Working knowledge of Microsoft Word and Excel
What is on offer
- Salary of £30,000 to £35,000, depending on experience
- Monday-to-Friday working, 9am to 5pm
- 21 days' annual leave plus bank holidays
- A permanent, office-based position

- A varied role with responsibility across the complete forwarding process
