Loads are delivered to Asia in sea containers and within Europe by lorry. We are looking for a colleague for both “branches of the business” and/or a combination thereof.
Together with your colleagues in a small team, you will monitor the shared mailbox on a daily basis and take care of the administrative organisation and follow-up of all international shipments.
You will enter transport orders, purchase (pre-)transport from transport companies at the best price, keep everyone informed about the schedule and ensure that your colleagues can provide the correct documents with the shipment.
For sea container transport, you will also prepare bank documentation, take care of customs declarations, and liaise with transporters, banks, shipping companies, customs, and freight forwarders, among others.
For lorry transport, you will mainly be in contact with customers and transporters. For customers you have to register shipments online, using the various programmes they provide for this purpose. You will be in contact with transporters to book new shipments and to provide and receive information about current shipments.
From your office workplace in lorry transport, you will be in daily contact by telephone and e-mail with people from all over Europe, particularly from the Netherlands, Belgium, the United Kingdom and Germany. For sea container transport, you will also be in contact with people in Asia.
The transport and documentation team is the central point of contact for everyone when it comes to the delivery of our freight. Together with your colleagues, you ensure that all transports, an average of 60 per day, run smoothly under the best conditions and in line with legislation.
You have an MBO/HBO level of working and thinking, and you speak and write (at least) good Dutch and English. Other important skills include accuracy, communication, proactivity, flexibility and efficiency. You are able to negotiate rates.
Good working conditions, security and a very nice workplace in a small but nice team.
