Communicate clearly with Government authorities and third parties to resolve any issues.
Track shipments and update customers and hauliers on progress and status.
Act as a key point of contact for customer queries and status updates.
Keep internal trackers and records accurate and up to date.
Liaise with hauliers, customs agents, suppliers and the internal team to resolve delays or compliance issues.

Proven experience working within imports and using CDS customs software.
Good knowledge of customs procedures, Incoterms, tariff classifications and trade compliance.
Well organised, proactive and able to prioritise workload in a fast‑paced environment.
Strong coordination skills, with the ability to manage multiple tasks and shipments throughout the day.
Experience using ASM and/or IPAFFS is an advantage, but not essential.
