Job Description
Location: Manchester
Salary: Up to £37,500 DOE + Benefits
Experience: 1–2 Years Minimum (UK/EU Road Freight Experience Essential)
The Role
Are you a Road Freight specialist who is tired of only seeing one part of the process? We are looking for a Road Freight Coordinator to join our Manchester-based team. We value true forwarders—people who can take a booking at the start of the day and manage it right through to the final delivery.
What You’ll Be Doing
* 360-Degree Management: Handling the full lifecycle of Road Export movements (Groupage, LTL, and FTL) between the UK and Europe.
* Carrier Sourcing: Negotiating with hauliers and European partners to secure the best rates and equipment for your clients.
* Customs Mastery: Ensuring all Post-Brexit documentation—including CMRs, T-forms, and Export/Import declarations—is accurate and compliant to prevent border delays.
* Problem Solving: Being the "go-to" for your clients. If a truck is delayed or a document is missing, you fix it.
* Financial Control: Managing your own files, ensuring all costs are accrued and invoices are raised accurately.
What You Need
* Experience: Minimum 1–2 years of current experience in a Road Freight Forwarding environment.
* Geography: A solid understanding of UK-EU transit routes and the current customs landscape.
* Pace: The ability to thrive in a high-volume, fast-moving environment where no two days are the same.
* Confidentiality: We understand you may currently be employed by a partner or competitor. Every application is handled with the strict professional discretion you would expect.
Why Apply?
* End-to-End Responsibility: No "silo" working—you manage the whole job.
* Leeds Hub: Join a growing team in a key logistics location.
* Career Growth: We promote from within and value people who take ownership of their desk
