From import clerks to branch managers, we find permanent forwarding people in Broxburn who know the paperwork and the customers.
Forwarding is judged on margin, accuracy and the customer's next booking. We recruit people who protect all three.
Freight across Scotland moves through the M8, M74, M77 and M90, Glasgow and Edinburgh airports and the ports at Grangemouth, the Clyde and Aberdeen. Forwarders who know those gateways quote and book with confidence.
Opening a new branch or desk? We can recruit the manager and the operators together so it trades from day one.
The strongest forwarding candidates across Scotland are usually already running desks for businesses such as retail and grocery distribution, food, drink and whisky supply chains, energy logistics and national 3PLs.
Air, sea, road and customs roles.
Air, sea or road, import or export: we match forwarders to the work they have actually handled.
We confirm the declarations and compliance work candidates have done before they reach your shortlist.
We keep in touch through notice periods and the first months, while a new forwarder learns your customers.
Indicative permanent salaries in Broxburn 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.
A short list with notes on each candidate's modes, lanes and customers.
We ask about any restrictions in a candidate's current contract before an offer is made.
We stay in touch through the first months as the new forwarder takes over accounts.
An empty desk costs more than the advert: missed quotes, slower bookings and customers looking elsewhere.
When a forwarding role is proving hard to fill, we work out whether the pay, the hours or the workload is the obstacle. Then we tell you.
