Permanent freight forwarders, customs specialists and branch managers for businesses in Perth.
We look for people who have worked your modes and lanes: air, sea, road, imports, exports or cross-trade.
Forwarding vacancies across Tayside & Fife come from food and drink manufacturing, soft-fruit and agri-food distribution, life sciences and regional 3PLs. Each needs people who can handle the paperwork and the customer.
A forwarder who leaves after a few months takes customer relationships and carrier contacts with them.
With the A90, M90 and A9, the Port of Dundee and Rosyth serving the region, forwarders across Tayside & Fife often handle air, sea and road freight on the same desk.
Forwarding roles for imports, exports and cross-trade.
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.

Indicative permanent salaries in Perth run from around £26k for clerks up to £55k+ for branch managers.
Forwarding pay in Scotland moves with mode, seniority and customs responsibility: customs specialists and branch managers usually earn more. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Modes, declarations, systems and right to work checked before the first interview.
We arrange interviews and any technical test, then brief each candidate beforehand.
We ask about any restrictions in a candidate's current contract before an offer is made.
An empty desk costs more than the advert: missed quotes, slower bookings and customers looking elsewhere.
Forwarders who leave early often cite workload, weak systems or no route to account management. We raise all three first.
