Full job description

Sulzer is a leading engineering company with a proud heritage of innovation. Join our global team to grow your expertise and develop innovative solutions that enable a prosperous and more sustainable society.

About the role

At Sulzer Leeds, we design and build some of the world’s most advanced engineered pump packages — the kind that keep global infrastructure moving and can weigh anything up to 150 tonnes. As we continue to grow and bring key capabilities in‑house, we’re now looking for a Despatch Freight Coordinator to help us take full control of our import, export, and heavy‑lift logistics. If you thrive in complex, high‑value engineering environments and love the challenge of out‑of‑gauge and break bulk freight, this is your opportunity to play a pivotal role in how we move some of the biggest kit in the industry.

Key Duties

Coordinate global import and export shipments, ensuring compliance with customs regulations and trade laws.
Manage OOG and break bulk shipments, working closely with specialist carriers, port operators, and freight forwarders.
Prepare and verify shipping and customs documentation (CDS entries, bills of lading, CoO, packing lists).
Plan and book UK and international transport, optimising routes, loads, and freight costs.
Monitor shipment progress, maintain accurate records, and keep internal teams updated in real time.

Required Skills & Experience

Experience in freight coordination, transport planning, or logistics—ideally within heavy engineering or project cargo.
Knowledge of out-of-gauge, break bulk, or oversized cargo handling (road, sea, or multimodal).
Strong understanding of customs procedures, Incoterms, and international trade compliance.
Excellent organisation, communication, and problem‑solving skills.
Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast‑paced, project‑driven environment.

What we offer you

What we offer:

Competitive salary and company-wide bonus scheme
33 days' holiday (inclusive of bank holidays) + service days
Defined contribution pension scheme
Employee Assistance Programme for personal well-being
Convenient on-site facilities: free onsite car park, discounted staff canteen, and access to a 24/7 onsite gym.
Access to discounts on Everyday Shopping, Entertainment, and Lifestyle

Sulzer is an equal opportunity employer. We believe in the strength of a diverse workforce and are committed to offering an inclusive work environment.

We are proud to be recognized as a Top Employer 2026 in Brazil, Canada, China, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Mexico, Switzerland, South Africa, the UK and the USA.
