Permanent freight forwarders, customs specialists and branch managers for businesses in Liskeard.
Customs errors are expensive. We recruit people who get the declaration right first time.
The market around Liskeard is a long-distance market — planning around drive times and seasonality matters more than motorway proximity. We recruit the forwarders and customs specialists who keep that trade moving.
Air freight, ocean freight, road groupage and customs brokerage need different specialists. We recruit each one differently.
Businesses at sites such as the Cornwall A30 corridor and the Pool, Redruth and St Austell estates compete for the same experienced customs people, which pushes salaries up.
The people who quote, book and clear freight and the people who win it.
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.
We benchmark salary, commission and bonus against the local market before the role goes out.
