Jobbeschreibung

Ready for something different? Good, so are we.

This won\’t be your typical logistics job, and we\’re not your typical forwarder. At MPL, we think beyond the container and always go one step further in everything we do. How? By living the mission, not just executing the job.

With a unique mix of logistics services, real and personal advice, we make things happen. Now, we\'re looking for an experienced logistics professional to strengthen our Projects & Events Team in Antwerp.

If you enjoy complex logistics challenges, thrive under pressure and love finding creative solutions when standard processes no longer apply, this could be your next move.

As a Forwarder within our Projects & Events team, you take ownership of complex international shipments that require planning, coordination and a strong dose of creativity.

Unlike traditional forwarding environments, no two projects are the same. One day you\'re coordinating exhibition materials for an international event, the next you\'re managing oversized cargo, steel shipments or multimodal project cargo moving across multiple countries and transport modes.

You coordinate both import and export shipments and work across ocean freight, air freight, road transport and container logistics. Many shipments involve warehouse activities, stuffings, strippings and close collaboration with agents, suppliers and MPL offices around the world.

This is a role for someone who enjoys variety, can quickly adapt to changing circumstances and knows how to stay calm when timelines become critical. You become a trusted partner for your customers, ensuring every shipment is executed flawlessly, even when the unexpected happens.

At MPL, forwarding isn\’t about following a fixed process. It\’s about thinking ahead, solving challenges and making things happen.
