Finding Specialists Who Keep Goods Moving

Australia’s Freight forwarding supply chain needs skilled professionals to manage every detail, compliance, delay, and so much more. Be it via rail, air, sea and road between ports, warehouses to and from the A-Z of destinations. Freight forwarding and transporting cargo must be kept moving efficiently, cost effectively, and securely. This requires people who understand logistics, customs clearance, hazardous goods handling, warehousing, and distribution.

Why the Right People Matter in Freight Forwarding

Operating Internationally, freight forwarding companies combine coastal shipping, rail, air, and road freight.

Behind all these solutions are specialists who know how to make it run smoothly. Customs brokers, freight forwarding coordinators, import/export coordinators, operations managers, customer service operators, transport schedulers, and forklift operators. This extensive list of roles are the people businesses rely on to keep goods moving.

It doesn’t, however, come without the challenge that these specialist skills are in short supply and hiring the wrong person could delay shipments or receive penalties from compliance, even break client trust.

How I Help My Clients Hire the Right Freight Forwarding Staff

I specialise in recruiting for the logistics and supply chain/freight forwarding sector. I empathise and understand that these roles are so important to get right for business stability, and clients often come to me because:

  • They need import/export operators who can handle compliance and keep costs down.
  • They require freight coordinators who thrive under pressure and with deadlines.
  • They can’t afford staff turnover in roles where training takes months.

I connect freight forwarding businesses with candidates to understand the industry they work in inside and out of. This includes experience with:

  • International freight forwarding networks
  • Customs and quarantine systems
  • Multimodal shipping solutions (sea, air, road, and rail)
  • Specialist project and oversize cargo handling

By focusing on both skill and cultural fit, I like to ensure the staff you hire are long-term assets to your business.

Why Should Melbourne Businesses Trust Specialised Recruitment Such as TRS?

The freight forwarding industry is forever growing, and as trade increases and compliance becomes stricter. Having the right staff in place ensures you can:

  • Deliver shipments on time and avoid fines
  • Have the correct compliance regulations with customs and quarantine
  • Protect your reputation with reliable and logistics services

Don’t risk the wrong hire; a partnership with the right Recruitment Company is crucial, and building a relationship with your recruiter leads to trust in your specialist to deliver the right people at the right time.

If you’re a Melbourne or Sydney based business looking to strengthen your freight forwarding team, I’d be happy to help you find the professional talent you need.
