Job description

The Import / Export Specialist is responsible for coordinating and administering the end-to-end documentation and operational processes required to move goods internationally. The role ensures all import and export activities comply with customs regulations, trade legislation, and company procedures, enabling timely, cost-effective, and compliant movement of goods across borders.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and implement efficient, compliant processes for international movements
  • Ensure compliance with local and international customs regulations, trade controls, and HMRC requirements. Maintaining up-to-date knowledge of import/export legislation, duties, VAT, and trade agreements
  • Facilitate the preparation and processing of import and export documentation, ensuring accurate tariff classification, customs valuation, and application of Incoterms
  • Build and maintain customs agent instruction sheets (commodity code, TARIC add-on code, threshold code) and review agent-filed declarations for accuracy
  • Coordinate shipments with freight forwarders, carriers, customs brokers, and internal stakeholders

  • Maintain a forward-looking view of CBAM-scope materials across pipeline projects, flagging exposure at quoting/tender stage rather than after volumes are committed

Metrics for success

  • Accuracy of documentation and customs declarations
  • Compliance with customs and trade regulations
  • Reduction in delays, penalties, and additional freight costs
  • CBAM tonnage tracked against threshold, with no unplanned crossing
