ABOUT THE ROLE

WHAT YOU’LL DO

1. Manage day-to-day import coordination across 35+ countries — from booking to final delivery.
2. Classify entries using correct HTS codes and stay current on tariff changes, Section 301 duties, and AD/CVD cases.
3. Work closely with customs brokers: review ISFs, entry summaries, CF-7501s, and all supporting documentation before submission.
4. Handle CBP queries (CF-28/29), customs exams, and holds — coordinating fast, accurate responses.
5. Ensure compliance with CBP, FDA, USDA, CPSC, and other regulatory agencies as applicable.
6. Track shipments via TMS and carrier portals; manage exceptions and escalate issues proactively.
7. Analyze freight costs, duties, demurrage, and detention — and identify savings opportunities.
8. Use AI tools and data analytics to automate tasks, improve reporting, and bring new ideas to the team.
9. Maintain strong relationships with freight forwarders, steamship lines, and customs brokers.
10. Prepare KPI reports on shipment performance, duty spend, and compliance metrics for leadership.
