About the role

Scan Global Logistics is seeking a freight forwarding professional to manage sea and project shipments. The role involves coordinating import and export shipments within Finland and globally.

The position offers a permanent role in a growing international logistics company with a flexible hybrid work model and flexible working hours. Key responsibilities include coordinating sea and project shipments, opening shipments in the forwarding program, arranging pickups and deliveries, planning project shipments with the team, documentation, customs clearance (with support from specialists), cost entry, invoicing, and active communication with customers and stakeholders. A limited security clearance will be conducted for the selected candidate.
