Job Description:

We’re looking for a Senior Customs Executive to join our Central Customs Team in Leeds.

This Senior Customs Executive role is a supervisory position, responsible for maintaining compliance with customs regulations and facilitating the smooth flow of goods for Ligentia's clients. Key duties include supervising a team of Customs Executives, overseeing day-to-day activities, and ensuring SLAs are met.

This is a specialist role focused solely on customs operations, rather than end-to-end logistics. The role also offers opportunities to develop into customs consultancy projects.

Your Role:

• Customs Entries: Handling UK customs entries for import ocean shipments, including home use and simplified entries.
• Supervision: Overseeing a team of customs operators, managing day-to-day operations, and ensuring targets are met.
• Customer Interaction: Engaging in customs consultancy, providing guidance and support to customers, and ensuring compliance.
• Technical Tasks: Managing reclaims and amendments to customs entries, and potentially getting involved in customs warehousing.

What You'll Need:

• Strong customs knowledge
• Team leadership/supervisory experience
• Accuracy and attention to detail
• Ability to handle data accurately
• Cargowise system knowledge
• Strong CPC Understanding (e.g., Customs Warehousing, IPR, OPR)

A tech vision and roadmap that will turn heads for all the right reasons. And colleagues with high commitment and unrivalled knowledge, combined with low ego.
