Forwarders who protect margin and customs people who protect compliance, recruited for Blantyre businesses.
Experienced customs people rarely need to look for work. We approach them with the details that would make them move.
Goods passing through sites such as Eurocentral — one of the UK's largest rail-connected freight parks — Bellshill and the M8 distribution belt depend on accurate bookings and clean declarations. We match forwarders to that standard.
Opening a new branch or desk? We can recruit the manager and the operators together so it trades from day one.
Forwarding roles across Scotland support trade through the M8, M74, M77 and M90, Glasgow and Edinburgh airports and the ports at Grangemouth, the Clyde and Aberdeen.
The people who quote, book and clear freight and the people who win it.
Air, sea or road, import or export: we match forwarders to the work they have actually handled.
We ask which booking and customs systems candidates use every day, so there is no hidden learning curve.
Good forwarders keep customers booking. We ask how they handled a delayed or held shipment.
Indicative permanent salaries in Blantyre run from around £26k for clerks up to £55k+ for branch managers.
Salary is only part of the offer. Candidates compare commission, bonus, hybrid working and the accounts they will run. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Modes, lanes, systems, customers and the gap the new hire needs to fill.
Modes, declarations, systems and right to work checked before the first interview.
We ask about any restrictions in a candidate's current contract before an offer is made.
Temporary cover suits a short gap. A permanent hire is the answer when accounts need an owner.
Strong forwarders value good systems, fair commission and a manager who backs them with customers.
