Permanent freight forwarding and customs recruitment across Warwickshire & the West Midlands.
Every forwarding candidate we put forward is screened on the modes, lanes and customers they have handled.
Coventry sits inside the Golden Triangle with a deep automotive and battery-manufacturing supply chain, served by the M6, M69 and M1. Across Warwickshire & the West Midlands, forwarders serve importers and exporters shipping through the M6, M69, M1 and A45, Birmingham Airport and Coventry's rail connections.
We ask candidates which modes and lanes they handle, which systems they book in and how many declarations they complete.
Across Warwickshire & the West Midlands, forwarders and customs specialists are hired by automotive and manufacturing supply chains, national 3PLs and retail distribution centres.
Air, sea, road and customs roles.
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.
Many forwarders are well known to their customers. We approach them discreetly.
Indicative permanent salaries in Coventry run from around £26k for clerks up to £55k+ for branch managers.
Our pay advice uses current forwarding offers rather than old salary surveys. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Modes, lanes, systems, customers and the gap the new hire needs to fill.
We approach forwarders and customs specialists directly, including the ones who are not looking.
We help settle salary, commission and start date so the offer is accepted first time.
Strong operators become account managers and branch managers. Hiring well now builds the next layer.
