Job description

Ready to handle the cargo that doesn't fit the standard solution?

Do you enjoy the challenge of finding solutions where others see obstacles? Are you motivated by responsibility, customer dialogue, and the satisfaction of seeing a complex project successfully delivered from start to finish?

At NTG Projects, you'll work with international project logistics where no two assignments are exactly alike. You will manage international project shipments from planning and quotation through execution, cost control and final delivery, working closely with customers, suppliers and partners across the globe.

You'll become part of a team that specialises in moving the cargo that doesn't fit into standard solutions. The projects are complex, the expectations are high, and the opportunities to make an impact are even higher.

What you'll become part of

NTG Projects is part of Nordic Transport Group (NTG), a global transport and logistics group delivering tailor-made solutions across industries, infrastructure, energy and offshore sectors.

From heavy lift and breakbulk shipments to complex project cargo and multimodal transportation, we help customers move critical equipment and materials across the world. Behind every successful project is a team of experienced specialists who combine technical expertise, commercial understanding and a strong determination to get the job done.

As our activities continue to grow, we're looking for a Project Forwarder to join our team in Kolding.

You'll enter an environment where responsibility is given, not earned over years. Decisions are made close to the business, and you'll have the freedom to take ownership of your projects while being supported by experienced colleagues who understand the realities of project logistics.

What you’ll do:

• Manage project cargo shipments worldwide from initial enquiry to final delivery.
• Plan and coordinate multimodal transports by sea, road, rail, air and barge.
• Develop practical transport solutions together with customers, carriers, agents, ports and subcontractors.
• Obtain supplier quotations, negotiate rates and prepare clear customer proposals.
• Coordinate shipping documentation and customs-related requirements in collaboration with the relevant parties.
• Monitor progress, identify operational risks early and take corrective action when needed.
• Control costs, complete invoicing and maintain commercial overview on assigned projects.
• Build strong customer and supplier relationships and contribute to business development.
• Support site operations or project supervision when required; international travel may occur.

And back to you...

You probably already know the feeling when plans suddenly change, a supplier calls with unexpected news, or a customer needs an answer faster than seems possible.

What motivates you is finding the right solution when complexity becomes part of the job.

Whether your background is within freight forwarding, project logistics, chartering, shipping or heavy transport, you enjoy finding practical solutions and keeping projects moving.

You know how to maintain an overview when several moving parts need attention at the same time, and you take pride in delivering on your commitments.

You're commercially minded and understand that successful logistics isn't only about moving cargo. It's about balancing service, cost, risk and profitability while building strong relationships with customers and partners.

You work independently when needed, communicate confidently across cultures and time zones, and approach problems with curiosity rather than frustration.

Experience with project cargo, heavy lift, breakbulk, renewable energy or infrastructure projects is an advantage, but by no means a requirement. What matters most is your drive, your willingness to take responsibility and your ambition to grow within an international logistics environment.

Ready to join NTG Projects?

If you're looking for a role where you can make a real impact, develop your skills and help move some of the world's most challenging cargo, we'd love to hear from you.
