Job Description:
Are you a logistics professional who thrives on the "desk-to-runway" process?

We are representing a growing independent freight forwarder looking for a dedicated Air Freight Operations Coordinator to join their close-knit, specialist team.

Unlike roles in massive global corporations where you might only see one part of the process, this position offers true end-to-end ownership. You will be the technical heartbeat of the export department, managing shipments from the initial booking through to final delivery.

Key Responsibilities*End-to-End Coordination: Manage the full lifecycle of air freight export shipments.
*Documentation Mastery: Prepare and verify critical documentation, including HAWB/MAWB, invoices, and packing lists.
*Carrier Management: Negotiate and book freight with airlines and overseas agents to ensure optimal routing and pricing.
*Proactive Monitoring: Track flight statuses and intervene proactively to resolve delays or disruptions.
*Financial Accuracy: Handle job costing and file completion with precision to ensure healthy margins.
*Urgent Shipments: Support time-critical movements (including AOG or Pharma) where speed and accuracy are non-negotiable.
What We Are Looking For*Proven Experience: A solid background in air freight operations within a freight forwarding environment is essential.
*Technical Knowledge: A deep understanding of air export processes and international shipping regulations.
*Communication: The ability to communicate confidently with customers, airlines, and international partners.
*Autonomy: A self-starter who can manage their own desk and prioritize a high-volume workload without constant supervision.
Why Join This Team? Our client prides itself on its independent status, offering a supportive and professional environment where your contribution is visible and valued.
*Competitive Salary: £30k–£35k based on your technical expertise.
*Comprehensive Benefits: Including private medical insurance, gym membership, and a company pension.
*Stability: A permanent role within a growing business that prioritizes long-term career development.
