  • Manage dangerous goods and lithium battery shipments in compliance with IATA DGR regulations
  • Track active shipments, resolve delays, and manage operational exceptions in a timely manner
  • Communicate directly with US customers, airlines, overseas agents, and logistics partners, and process shipment invoicing through the company's TMS

REQUIREMENTS

  • Matric (Grade 12) as a minimum; a National Diploma or relevant NQF Level 6 qualification in Logistics, Supply Chain, or a related field is advantageous
  • Minimum 2 years of hands-on air freight operations experience at a freight forwarder or IATA-accredited agent
  • Solid working knowledge of air freight documentation, including AWBs, and familiarity with US air shipping processes and regulations
  • Demonstrated experience with chargeable weight calculations, ULD rules, airline rates, and standard carrier procedures
  • Experience working within a freight forwarding or Transportation Management System (TMS)
  • Comfortable communicating professionally and directly with international customers and logistics partners in a remote environment

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE

  • Prior experience handling US air freight imports and exports specifically
  • IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR) certification, with experience managing dangerous goods and lithium battery shipments
  • Experience quoting air freight shipments and negotiating rates with airlines
  • Familiarity with US customs and TSA filing requirements

KEY COMPETENCIES

  • Strong communication skills
  • High attention to detail
  • Strong organizational skills
  • Ability to work independently

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
