Full job description

The Role

Join 500 Logistics, a rapidly growing freight forwarding business, as part of our operations team based in Thatcham. This is an exciting opportunity for someone at the start of their career, or looking to begin a new career, to enter a varied, fast-paced role with excellent long-term development opportunities.

You will complete an 18-month Level 3 International Freight Forwarding Specialist Apprenticeship, combining formal study with comprehensive workplace training from our experienced operations team. You will gradually learn how to quote, book and coordinate international road, air and sea freight movements from initial enquiry through to final delivery, including customs clearance.

No previous freight experience is required. However, this is a busy operational role involving customers, suppliers, deadlines and rapidly changing priorities. We are therefore looking for someone who learns quickly, communicates confidently and takes real pride in producing accurate work. The position would suit someone who is highly organised, has excellent attention to detail and can remain calm when managing several priorities. An interest in business, logistics or international trade would be particularly beneficial.

Responsibilities

As your knowledge and confidence develop, your responsibilities will include:

Preparing quotations for road, air and sea freight movements
Booking transport and coordinating shipments from collection through to delivery
Preparing documentation and arranging customs clearances
Booking collection and delivery slots with suppliers and receivers
Monitoring live shipments and responding proactively to any delays or changes
Keeping customers fully informed throughout their shipment
Creating and maintaining accurate bookings within our freight management system
Communicating professionally with customers, hauliers, airlines, shipping lines and overseas agents
Checking shipment information and documentation for accuracy
Supporting the wider operations team in delivering an exceptional logistics service

A minimum of five GCSEs at grades 9–4/A*–C, including English and Mathematics, or equivalent qualifications
Strong written communication and numerical skills
Able to absorb new information, processes and systems quickly
A logical approach to solving problems and making decisions
Excellent attention to detail and a commitment to completing work accurately
Confident communicating professionally by telephone and email
Able to organise competing priorities in a busy, fast-moving environment
Willing to take responsibility, use initiative and ask questions when needed
Dependable, punctual and committed to completing the apprenticeship
A positive, team-focused attitude and a genuine desire to build a long-term career
Please note: Dogs are regularly present in our office, so applicants should be comfortable working in a dog-friendly environment.

Desirable

A-levels, a BTEC, T-level, college qualification, degree or other further/higher education
Previous experience from employment, work experience, volunteering, extracurricular activities or positions of responsibility
An interest in business, logistics, international trade, transport or customer service
Familiarity with Microsoft Office, particularly Outlook, Excel and Word
Evidence of achievement beyond academic qualifications, such as sport, societies, part-time work, volunteering or personal projects

Benefits & Features

£8 - £12.71 per hour, depending on apprenticeship status and experience
