Working Hours

• 9:00am – 5:00pm during training
• 11:00am – 7:00pm once fully trained

The Role As a Customs Operator, you will play a key role in ensuring import and export shipments are processed efficiently and compliantly. Full training will be provided, allowing you to develop into a Customs specialist within the Freight Forwarding industry.
Duties will include:

• Processing customs declarations
• Liaising with customers, carriers and customs authorities
• Ensuring all documentation is accurate and compliant
• Managing shipment information and updates
• Supporting import and export operations
• Building knowledge of customs regulations and procedures

• Bright, enthusiastic and eager to learn
• Able to work independently and manage their own workload
• Confident using their initiative
• Organised with excellent attention to detail
• Strong communicators with a professional attitude
• Looking for a long-term career rather than just another job
