Hiring a customs specialist in Lincoln? We check the declarations experience first, then everything else.
A forwarder who can quote but not clear, or clear but not sell, only solves half the problem. We test for the whole job.
Freight across the East Midlands moves through the M1, A14, A42 and A50, East Midlands Airport's major air-freight hub and DIRFT's rail terminal. Forwarders who know those gateways quote and book with confidence.
A forwarding offer competes with every broker and carrier within reach. We help set salary and commission so it lands first time.
Across the East Midlands, forwarders and customs specialists are hired by national distribution centres, 3PLs, e-commerce fulfilment and rail-connected freight operations.
Forwarding roles for imports, exports and cross-trade.

We approach forwarders and customs specialists directly, including the ones who are not looking.
We arrange interviews and any technical test, then brief each candidate beforehand.
