Permanent freight forwarders, customs specialists and branch managers for businesses in Heanor.
Experienced customs people rarely need to look for work. We approach them with the details that would make them move.
Goods passing through sites such as DIRFT, Magna Park and the SEGRO and Prologis parks along the M1 depend on accurate bookings and clean declarations. We match forwarders to that standard.
Air freight, ocean freight, road groupage and customs brokerage need different specialists. We recruit each one differently.
With the M1, A14, A42 and A50, East Midlands Airport's major air-freight hub and DIRFT's rail terminal serving the region, forwarders across the East Midlands 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.
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 Heanor 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.
Modes, declarations, systems and right to work checked before the first interview.
We arrange interviews and any technical test, then brief each candidate beforehand.
Temporary cover suits a short gap. A permanent hire is the answer when accounts need an owner.
We ask candidates why they left their last desk. The answer tells us whether yours will keep them.
