• Visibility & Tracking: Monitor cargo across all transit modes, proactively managing delays, transshipment bottlenecks, and customs holds.
• Documentation: Manage complex cross-border paperwork, including CMRs, Ocean Bills of Lading, and international customs declarations.
🎓 **Requirements:**
• 3+ years of experience in freight forwarding, specifically with intermodal and multimodal routing.
• Strong understanding of global shipping lanes, port infrastructure, and rail networks.
