Job Description
Are you someone who keeps a clear overview when others start to feel the pressure? Do you get energy from planning, coordinating and organizing until everything is perfectly aligned? Then this is your opportunity to work at the heart of logistics around Schiphol.

As a Road Freight Forwarder, you are the key link in the transport process. You ensure that shipments reach their destination smoothly, safely and on time. From planning to execution, you stay in control.

What will you do?
No two days are the same. You start by checking ongoing transports and processing new assignments. You are in constant contact with carriers, customers and colleagues, both nationally and internationally. When something doesn't go according to plan, you think ahead and act immediately.

You thrive in a fast-paced environment, work in a structured way and take pride in a tight and accurate planning.

  • You are able to obtain a VGB clearance (minimum 8 years resident in the EU)
  • You work accurately, think ahead and switch quickly
