We place permanent freight forwarding talent across Ilfracombe and the South West — the forwarders, customs specialists and branch managers who move international freight door to door. Permanent appointments only.
As a specialist permanent freight forwarding recruiter, we place the forwarders, customs specialists and branch managers who move international freight door to door across Ilfracombe and the South West.
Ilfracombe sits in the far South West, beyond the end of the M5 at Exeter, where the A30 and A38 carry the freight and distances change how operations are run.
We recruit throughout Devon & Cornwall — from Falmouth docks and the far-west distribution depots — for businesses connected by the A30, A38 and A390, the M5 as far as Exeter, and the ports at Plymouth and Falmouth. Typical employers we partner with include chilled and ambient food distribution, marine services, aggregates and china clay logistics and independent hauliers.
Permanent freight forwarding roles, from the floor to senior leadership.
We know where freight forwarding talent sits across Falmouth docks and the far-west distribution depots — and what it takes to move them.

Every freight forwarding role we work in Ilfracombe is a permanent appointment — never temp, agency or contract cover.
