Forwarders who protect margin and customs people who protect compliance, recruited for Crail businesses.
We look for people who have worked your modes and lanes: air, sea, road, imports, exports or cross-trade.
Logistics around Crail serves a strong food and drink base, with the A90 and M90 linking Angus, Perthshire and Fife to the wider network. We recruit the forwarders and customs specialists who keep that trade moving.
A forwarder who leaves after a few months takes customer relationships and carrier contacts with them.
With the A90, M90 and A9, the Port of Dundee and Rosyth serving the region, forwarders across Tayside & Fife often handle air, sea and road freight on the same desk.
Forwarding roles for imports, exports and cross-trade.
We confirm the declarations and compliance work candidates have done before they reach your shortlist.
Good forwarders keep customers booking. We ask how they handled a delayed or held shipment.
Many forwarders are well known to their customers. We approach them discreetly.
Indicative permanent salaries in Crail 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 arrange interviews and any technical test, then brief each candidate beforehand.
We ask about any restrictions in a candidate's current contract before an offer is made.
A forwarder who knows a customer's history avoids the mistakes that lose accounts.
Forwarders who leave early often cite workload, weak systems or no route to account management. We raise all three first.
