Forwarders who protect margin and customs people who protect compliance, recruited for Lowestoft businesses.
We look for people who have worked your modes and lanes: air, sea, road, imports, exports or cross-trade.
Lowestoft draws on a Norfolk and Fenland labour market with deep experience in temperature-controlled and seasonal agricultural work. Across Norfolk & the Fens, forwarders serve importers and exporters shipping through the A11, the A47, the A17 and the ports at Great Yarmouth and King's Lynn.
When the Lowestoft 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 A11 corridor and the Norwich and Thetford distribution parks are usually approached directly rather than through adverts.
Permanent forwarding roles matched to mode, lanes and systems.
Air, sea or road, import or export: we match forwarders to the work they have actually handled.
We ask which booking and customs systems candidates use every day, so there is no hidden learning curve.
