Freight Forwarding Recruitment in Mold

Permanent freight forwarding and customs recruitment across North Wales.

North Wales

A freight forwarding desk for Mold

We look for people who have worked your modes and lanes: air, sea, road, imports, exports or cross-trade.

Mold sits in North Wales, where the A55 expressway and the port of Holyhead carry the freight — not the M4 and the South Wales docks. 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 A55 corridor estates at Flint, Mold and Colwyn Bay compete for the same experienced customs people, which pushes salaries up.

How it works

Our process, step by step

The shortlist

A short list with notes on each candidate's modes, lanes and customers.

Contract restrictions

We ask about any restrictions in a candidate's current contract before an offer is made.

The offer

We help settle salary, commission and start date so the offer is accepted first time.

Your brief

Getting the brief right

A forwarder who knows a customer's history avoids the mistakes that lose accounts.

We ask candidates why they left their last desk. The answer tells us whether yours will keep them.

A strong forwarding brief covers:

  • The booking and customs systems in use
  • Account ownership and any sales targets
  • The main gap the new hire should fill
  • Your interview process and any technical test
