About the Role

We’re looking for a detail-driven and proactive Customs Clerk to support the seamless movement of time-critical freight from European gateways into the UK and onward to Ireland.

In this role, you’ll be at the heart of international logistics—ensuring import and export processes run smoothly, compliantly, and without delay. This is a fast-paced, high-responsibility position where accuracy and speed are essential, and where your work directly impacts customer satisfaction and operational success.

Key Responsibilities

Process export documentation within tight timeframes (target: within 30 minutes of receipt)
Prepare transportation documents and manifests for nightly operations
Ensure all export clearances and manifests are accurate to avoid delays in Irish import clearance
Liaise with customs authorities and customers to resolve queries efficiently
Complete safety and security declarations in line with regulations
Support the creation of Air Waybills (AWBs) and flight manifests
Maintain accurate reporting for transactional charging (import, export, screening, handling)
Contribute to continuous improvement of customs processes and operational performance

What We’re Looking For

Experience & Knowledge

Minimum 2 years’ experience in import/export and customs compliance
Exposure to both air and road freight operations
Strong understanding of import/export laws and regulations
Experience working with HMRC and Border Force systems (including CHIEF and CDS)
Relevant qualification in Customs, Import/Export, or International Trade (preferred)

Skills & Competencies

High level of accuracy and attention to detail
Strong organisational and time-management skills
Confident communication skills (written and verbal)
Proficiency in IT systems, particularly Excel
Problem-solving mindset with the ability to work under pressure
Commercial awareness of the impact of delays in freight movement

Working Hours

This is a full-time role working 40 hours per week, across 5 days, in 8-hour shifts.
Shifts are based on a 2-weekly rota covering a 24-hour operation (6:00am Monday to 6:00am Saturday). Flexibility is essential.

Salary & Benefits

£36,500 per annum
Up to £3,500 per year night allowance (for relevant night shifts)
24 days holiday plus bank holidays
Your birthday off
Health Cash Plan
Free onsite parking at the Birmingham Airport location
Company discounts and regular social events
Safe, modern trucks and a well-organised, stable workplace
Real opportunities for career development and progression

What You’ll Bring

Operational expertise in a logistics or customs environment
Resourcefulness – the ability to overcome challenges and keep things moving
Continuous improvement mindset – always looking for smarter, better ways to operate
Customer focus – understanding the importance of delivering on time, every time

Our Values

Ownership – We take responsibility and deliver results
Learning – We grow, develop, and share knowledge
Caring – We respect and support our customers, colleagues, and communities

Why Join Us?

You’ll be part of a dynamic logistics environment where your contribution has a real impact. This is an opportunity to develop your expertise in international trade and customs while working within a supportive and driven team.
