Coordinate with customs brokers, freight forwarders, and other third-party service providers to expedite customs clearance and resolve any issues or discrepancies that may arise. Import Compliance and Regulatory Affairs: Stay informed about import laws, regulations, and trade policies, monitoring changes and updates that may impact import clearance procedures. Interpret import regulations and advise internal stakeholders on compliance requirements, documentation standards, and import restrictions for specific product categories. Develop and implement import compliance programs, policies, and procedures to mitigate risks and ensure adherence to regulatory requirements. Vendor and Supplier Management: Liaise with overseas suppliers, vendors, and manufacturers to obtain required import documentation, including commercial invoices, packing lists, and certificates of origin. Establish and maintain relationships with key suppliers and vendors, ensuring alignment with import clearance processes and requirements. Collaborate with procurement and supply chain teams to optimize import logistics, reduce lead times, and improve import cost efficiency. Risk Management and Trade Compliance: Identify and assess import-related risks, such as customs delays, compliance issues, and duty liabilities, developing strategies and controls to mitigate risks effectively. Conduct periodic audits and assessments of import clearance processes, documentation, and controls to ensure compliance with company policies and regulatory standards. Provide training and guidance to internal teams on import compliance practices, tariff classification, valuation methods, and trade documentation requirements. Performance Monitoring and Reporting: Track and analyze key performance indicators (KPIs) related to import clearance, such as clearance times, duty costs, and compliance rates. Generate regular reports and metrics on import clearance activities, highlighting trends, issues, and areas for improvement. Collaborate with finance and accounting teams to reconcile import-related costs, duties, and taxes for accurate financial reporting and budgeting. Qualifications and Skills: Bachelor's degree in international trade, supply chain management, business administration, or a related field; additional certification in import/export management is advantageous. Proven experience in import clearance, customs brokerage, or trade compliance roles, preferably in the FMCG industry or a related sector. Strong knowledge of import regulations, customs procedures, and trade compliance requirements, with experience dealing with customs authorities and government agencies. Excellent communication and negotiation skills, with the ability to build relationships and collaborate effectively with internal and external stakeholders.

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.
