Pace Appointments QLD is partnering with an established international freight forwarder to recruit an experienced Customer Service Representative for their Sydney team. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys building client relationships, taking ownership of a portfolio and keeping international shipments moving.

Based in Banksmeadow, you’ll join a supportive team and manage a varied client portfolio, predominantly across import sea freight, with some airfreight exposure.
