Your new company
Your new company is a long‑established manufacturing group operating across multiple regions globally, supporting technology‑driven industries with complex operational and quality requirements. The organisation runs a multi‑site footprint spanning many continents and works closely with global customers on long‑term programmes rather than short‑term or transactional engagements.

The role also involves tracking shipment status, resolving operational issues, monitoring service performance, and working closely with planning, procurement, and warehouse teams to keep logistics activities aligned with site priorities.

What you'll need to succeed

• Support daily inbound and outbound logistics coordination to ensure materials and shipments move on time and in line with production and delivery schedules.
• Liaise with freight forwarders, transporters, and internal teams to manage shipment bookings, documentation, and delivery follow‑ups.
