Hiring a customs specialist in Innerleithen? We check the declarations experience first, then everything else.
Customs errors are expensive. We recruit people who get the declaration right first time.
Forwarding vacancies across southern Scotland come from Irish Sea ferry and groupage operators, dairy and agri-food processing, forestry and timber haulage and regional 3PLs. Each needs people who can handle the paperwork and the customer.
When the Innerleithen market is thin for forwarding talent, we look further along the commute and consider hybrid patterns for desk roles.
Forwarders supporting sites such as the Borders towns along the A7 and A68 and the A1 coastal corridor are usually approached directly rather than through adverts.
Forwarding roles for imports, exports and cross-trade.
We ask which booking and customs systems candidates use every day, so there is no hidden learning curve.
Good forwarders keep customers booking. We ask how they handled a delayed or held shipment.
We keep in touch through notice periods and the first months, while a new forwarder learns your customers.
Indicative permanent salaries in Innerleithen run from around £26k for clerks up to £55k+ for branch managers.

Modes, lanes, systems, customers and the gap the new hire needs to fill.
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 permanent forwarder builds relationships with your customers and carriers. That value grows with every shipment.
