Permanent freight forwarding and customs recruitment across Scotland.
Customs errors are expensive. We recruit people who get the declaration right first time.
Newmains sits in Scotland, where the Central Belt's Eurocentral freight park and the M8 corridor handle the bulk of the country's distribution. Across Scotland, forwarders serve importers and exporters shipping through the M8, M74, M77 and M90, Glasgow and Edinburgh airports and the ports at Grangemouth, the Clyde and Aberdeen.
We ask candidates which modes and lanes they handle, which systems they book in and how many declarations they complete.
The strongest forwarding candidates across Scotland are usually already running desks for businesses such as grocery and retail DCs, food and drink supply chains, energy and port logistics and national 3PLs.
From junior operators to branch and business development managers.
Air, sea or road, import or export: we match forwarders to the work they have actually handled.
Good forwarders keep customers booking. We ask how they handled a delayed or held shipment.
A short list with notes on each candidate's modes, lanes and systems.
Indicative permanent salaries in Newmains run from around £26k for clerks up to £55k+ for branch managers.
Salary is only part of the offer. Candidates compare commission, bonus, hybrid working and the accounts they will run. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Modes, lanes, systems, customers and the gap the new hire needs to fill.
Modes, declarations, systems and right to work checked before the first interview.
We stay in touch through the first months as the new forwarder takes over accounts.
A forwarder who knows a customer's history avoids the mistakes that lose accounts.
Forwarders who leave early often cite workload, weak systems or no route to account management. We raise all three first.
