About the Client

Our client is a US-based logistics provider recognized for delivering reliable, efficient, and customer-focused supply chain solutions. With years of experience in domestic and international freight, they support shippers through smart processes, responsive communication, and modern operational tools. Their services cover a wide range of logistics needs, ensuring that every shipment is handled with accuracy, transparency, and care.

Schedule: Night Shift

Location: Fully Remote (WFH)

The Mission: To ensure every air import shipment reaches its destination efficiently and compliantly—by proactively identifying risks, resolving exceptions, and taking full ownership from arrival to delivery.

What You'll Do:

  • Own end-to-end air import shipments, from pre-alert to final delivery and billing closure
  • Proactively identify and resolve shipment exceptions, including:
    • Flight delays, rollovers, or offloads
    • Missing or incorrect documentation
    • Customs clearance issues or holds
    • Cargo availability and handling delays
  • Take decisive action to recover shipments at risk, coordinating with airlines, agents, brokers, and trucking providers
  • Ensure compliance with U.S. import requirements, including coordination of AMS (Air AMS / ACAS) filings
  • Validate shipment documents (MAWB/HAWB, invoice, packing list) and correct discrepancies before they impact clearance or delivery
  • Monitor cargo arrival, free time, and warehouse status to prevent storage charges—act before issues escalate
  • Communicate clearly with clients, not just updates but solutions and next steps when issues arise
  • Escalate when needed—but only after exploring and driving possible resolutions
  • Validate costs, flag discrepancies, and ensure accurate and timely billing
  • Maintain accurate shipment records and milestone updates in TMS

What You Need:

  • 2–5 years of hands-on air import operations experience in a freight forwarding environment
  • Proven ability to handle shipment exceptions independently (not just escalate or wait for instructions)
  • Strong working knowledge of air freight processes and documentation (MAWB/HAWB, arrival notices, PODs)
  • Experience managing U.S.-bound shipments, including AMS / ACAS requirements
  • Familiarity with customs clearance processes and resolving clearance-related issues
  • Experience coordinating across airlines, co-loaders, brokers, and overseas agents
  • Ability to manage multiple high-priority shipments simultaneously without losing attention to detail
  • Strong judgment and problem-solving skills under time pressure
  • Clear and proactive communication style—especially during disruptions
  • Experience using TMS
  • Amenable to working the night shift (US - EST time zone)

Why Expedock

  • HMO coverage and leave credits become available after three months of engagement.
  • Supportive Remote Environment: Work from home alongside a collaborative team that values growth and mutual success.
  • Structured Engagement & Training: Start strong with a structured engagement program and client-specific training designed to help you quickly master your assigned workflows.
