As a Trade Compliance Specialist at Chemours, you will become one of the key customs and trade compliance experts supporting our EMEA operations.

Instead, you will help shape and strengthen how a global manufacturing company manages compliance, risk, governance and regulatory excellence across international trade activities.

You will join a highly specialized team at an exciting moment. Chemours is transforming its customs operating model, moving declaration activities to external providers while building a stronger, more mature trade compliance function. This creates a unique opportunity to influence processes, support strategic decisions, and become a trusted advisor across business units, supply chain teams and external authorities.

What makes this role interesting

• Become the operational trade compliance expert within the EMEA team
• Work on complex customs, compliance and regulatory topics that have real business impact
• Influence how Chemours manages customs compliance during a major transformation

Your responsibilities will include:

• Advising on customs valuation, tariff classification and origin matters
• Supporting customs audits, investigations and authority interactions
• Monitoring and improving trade compliance processes and controls
• Overseeing external customs brokers and service providers
• Identifying compliance risks and coordinating mitigation measures
• Translating regulatory changes into practical business guidance
• Supporting internal audits and governance activities
• Driving continuous improvement initiatives across the trade compliance landscape

This fits you

You enjoy solving complex compliance challenges and translating legislation into practical actions. You combine strong technical expertise with a pragmatic mindset and are comfortable working across multiple stakeholders in an international environment.

You likely bring:

• At least 5 years of hands-on customs or trade compliance experience
• Experience within industry, customs brokerage, freight forwarding or logistics
• Knowledge of EU customs legislation and international trade frameworks
• Experience with customs audits and interactions with customs authorities
• Knowledge of customs valuation, classification and origin determination
• Strong stakeholder management skills
