Freight forwarding that believes logistics doesn't have to be boring.
We connect cargo with continents, planes with pallets, and sometimes customers with their long-lost shipments (just kidding… mostly).
The RoleWe're looking for a confident Freight Forwarder All-Rounder who can juggle Air & Sea freight without breaking a sweat — or at least without losing their sense of humour.
What You'll Do- Coordinate air and sea freight shipments from start to finish — the whole journey, minus the jet lag.
- Prepare accurate quotes, bookings and shipping documentation, ensuring all the T's are crossed and B/Ls, AWBs and paperwork are in order.
- Liaise with airlines, shipping lines, hauliers, agents and customers to make sure everything moves when and where it should.
- Track shipments and keep customers updated throughout the journey.
- Problem-solve like a pro when things go sideways — because, occasionally, they do.
- Build strong customer relationships through clear, proactive communication.
- Stay on top of customs requirements, international shipping regulations and industry procedures.
- Work closely with the wider team to keep operations running smoothly.
- You have experience in freight forwarding, ideally across Air & Sea.
- You speak fluent logistics — words like HAWB, ETA, B/L, demurrage and customs clearance don't scare you.
- You're organised, proactive and calm under pressure — or at least very good at looking like you are.
- You're confident communicating with customers, suppliers and overseas partners.
- You can multitask, troubleshoot and keep things moving when plans change.
- You're a team player with a good sense of humour and a genuine interest in the freight industry.
- A dynamic, friendly team that actually supports each other.
- Opportunities to grow, develop and learn.
- A varied role where no two days are quite the same.
- Competitive salary and benefits.
- Good coffee, good people and a sense of humour very much encouraged.
If you're ready to take logistics to the next level — and don't mind occasionally chasing a container — we'd love to hear from you.
