Permanent freight forwarding and customs recruitment across Yorkshire.
Every forwarding candidate we put forward is screened on the modes, lanes and customers they have handled.
Forwarding employers across Yorkshire include retail and online fulfilment operations, regional 3PLs, manufacturing distribution and Humber port logistics. Each works different lanes, so we recruit to the desk rather than the job title.
Time-zone work, early cut-offs and on-call cover suit different people. The hours are one of the first things we ask about.
Businesses at sites such as the M62 corridor parks and the iPort rail terminal at Doncaster compete for the same experienced customs people, which pushes salaries up.
Air, sea, road and customs roles.
Air, sea or road, import or export: we match forwarders to the work they have actually handled.
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 Featherstone run from around £26k for clerks up to £55k+ for branch managers.
Candidates weigh the whole package: salary, commission, hours and the quality of the customer base. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
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.
We help settle salary, commission and start date so the offer is accepted first time.
An empty desk costs more than the advert: missed quotes, slower bookings and customers looking elsewhere.
We ask candidates why they left their last desk. The answer tells us whether yours will keep them.
