In this role, you act as the central point of contact throughout the shipment lifecycle.

On a daily basis, you coordinate order intake, translate customer requirements into operational execution and work closely with planning, operations, finance, sales and external partners to ensure smooth and reliable shipment handling. As the trusted point of contact for customers and agents, you proactively manage expectations, resolve issues and navigate operational disruptions such as delays, vessel changes or capacity constraints. Alongside operational coordination, you are responsible for ensuring the commercial and financial completeness of orders, contributing to accurate revenue recognition, invoicing and dispute resolution. Throughout the entire process, you focus on delivering a professional, reliable and high-quality customer experience.

Alongside daily operations, you play an active role in improving processes and ways of working. By analysing customer feedback and operational performance, you identify opportunities to increase efficiency, service quality and collaboration across departments. You enjoy taking ownership, sharing insights and driving continuous improvement initiatives that create lasting value for both customers and the organisation.
