Hiring a customs specialist in Halifax? We check the declarations experience first, then everything else.
Permanent forwarding hires should grow the accounts they inherit.
Forwarding employers across Yorkshire include retail and grocery distribution, rail-linked intermodal operators, manufacturing supply chains and regional 3PLs. Each works different lanes, so we recruit to the desk rather than the job title.
Air freight, ocean freight, road groupage and customs brokerage need different specialists. We recruit each one differently.
With the M62, M1 and A1(M), Leeds Bradford and Doncaster Sheffield airports and the Humber ports at Hull and Immingham serving the region, forwarders across Yorkshire often handle air, sea and road freight on the same desk.
The people who quote, book and clear freight and the people who win it.
We ask which booking and customs systems candidates use every day, so there is no hidden learning curve.
We benchmark salary, commission and bonus against the local market before the role goes out.
Many forwarders are well known to their customers. We approach them discreetly.
Indicative permanent salaries in Halifax run from around £26k for clerks up to £55k+ for branch managers.
