Job description

It's more than a job

As a Foreign Trade Zone Supervisor at Kuehne+Nagel, your job is to optimise logistics to keep our global supply chains running smoothly. But the impact of your work goes beyond that.

  • Act as a primary contact for clients and users of the FTZ, participate in conference calls, and provide guidance and support
  • Coordinate with carriers, customs brokers, CBP, and various internal departments (e.g., logistics, engineering, tax, IT) to resolve issues and ensure efficient operations
  • Supervise and provide direction to the FTZ team, manage performance, and contribute to their professional growth
  • Maintain detailed and accurate records, update FTZ operations manuals, and manage FTZ data integrity
  • Troubleshoot and resolve complex logistics issues, discrepancies, and system challenges to prevent delays and ensure smooth operations
What we would like you to bring
  • Bachelor's degree in a related field (like business, logistics, or international trade) being preferred
  • 4+ years of experience in Foreign Trade Zones, customs brokerage, or trade compliance
  • In-depth understanding of FTZ regulations, U.S. customs laws, import/export processes, and trade compliance
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, especially Excel, and familiarity with FTZ
  • Strong Leadership, analytical, and problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and the ability to work effectively under pressure
What's in it for you

We offer a great compensation and medical/dental benefits package, a 401k retirement savings plan, employee discounts, tuition reimbursement, excellent training programs, and a fun, and interesting global work environment. #LI-RT1
