Join a leading freight forwarder as an Export Operator, managing shipments and supporting customers across international freight operations.

  • Booking shipments and coordinating with customers, carriers and overseas agents

  • Preparing and checking export documentation

  • Tracking shipments and providing updates

  • Supporting quotations and responding to customer queries

  • Helping resolve delays or other shipment issues

  • Maintaining accurate records and following operational procedures

What we’re looking for

  • Experience in freight forwarding or export operations in ocean, air or road freight

  • Good communication and organisation skills

  • A careful, customer-focused approach

  • The ability to manage competing priorities
