• Overseeing customs clearance, HS classification, and ensuring all APN, VAT, and Incoterms requirements are spot-on.
• Working closely with global partners, freight forwarders, and customs brokers across multiple time zones.
• Tracking costs and compiling landed cost reports, identifying opportunities for savings and improvements.
• Keeping the internal team informed with detailed dashboards and shipment visibility updates.

• Diploma in International Trade, Logistics Management, or Global Supply Chains or similar relevant qualification (NQF 5+).
• 3–5 years of solid experience in import/export or freight forwarding.
• Team management experience.
• Leadership capabilities.
• Able to take control, pro-active.
• Pro with customs, Incoterms, and international shipping documentation.
• Experience managing switch bills of lading and cross-trade logistics.
• Ability to stay composed when handling multiple shipments across different time zones and occasional after-hours action.
• Detail-obsessed, compliance-driven, and comfortable juggling multiple priorities.

• ICC Incoterms certification, FIATA or ITRISA qualifications.
• Experience with Zoho Inventory or other Trade Management Software.
• Working with a globally active company that’s growing its international logistics footprint.
• Being the go-to logistics expert in a highly collaborative and fast-paced environment.
• Building a career in a business that values precision, performance, and professionalism.
• In-office camaraderie in the Cape Town Northern Suburbs, with a fantastic team environment.
