Hiring a customs specialist in Lancaster? We check the declarations experience first, then everything else.
We look for people who have worked your modes and lanes: air, sea, road, imports, exports or cross-trade.
From container logistics on the Mersey to big-shed distribution on the M62, employers around Lancaster compete for experienced permanent people. Across the North West, forwarders serve importers and exporters shipping through the M6, M62, M56 and M61, Manchester and Liverpool airports and the Port of Liverpool.
Air freight, ocean freight, road groupage and customs brokerage need different specialists. We recruit each one differently.
