About Us:
Harry F. Long, Inc. is a high-performing, independent Customs brokerage built on expertise, precision, and trusted client relationships. We foster a collaborative, fast-paced environment where people are supported, challenged, and given real opportunities to grow their careers in the Customs and trade industry.
Why This Role:
This isn’t just another entry-writing position. It’s an opportunity to build deep expertise in Customs compliance, learn the “why” behind every entry, and develop into a true trade professional.
If you’re looking to grow, expand your knowledge, and eventually take your career to the next level (including earning your Customs Broker License), this is the place to do it.
What You’ll Do:
  • Prepare and transmit accurate, compliant Customs entries.
  • Classify goods under the HTSUS with a focus on accuracy and long-term compliance.
  • Review and validate import documentation (commercial invoices, BOLs, COO, PGA data, etc.).
  • Process ISFs, Post Summary Corrections, and Protests.
  • Communicate with CBP, importers, carriers, and partners to resolve issues quickly.
  • Stay ahead of changing tariffs, regulations, and compliance requirements.
  • Learn how Customs decisions impact business risk and client operations.
What We’re Looking For:
  • 2+ years of Customs brokerage or entry writing experience.
  • Working knowledge of HTS classification and CBP entry processes.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple priorities.
  • Clear communicator and proactive problem solver.
  • Motivated to learn, grow, and build a career in Customs compliance.

What You’ll Gain:
  • Hands-on experience in complex, real-world Customs scenarios.
  • Mentorship from experienced industry professionals.
  • Exposure to evolving trade policies, tariffs, and compliance strategy.
  • A clear path toward earning your Customs Broker License (CHB) and advancing your career.
Benefits:
  • Competitive salary.
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance.
  • 401(k) with company match.
  • Generous PTO.
  • Quarterly bonus program.
  • $10,000 bonus upon earning your Customs Broker License.

About Harry F. Long, Inc:
Founded in 1965, Harry F. Long, Inc. is a nationally recognized Customs brokerage headquartered in Chicago, providing expert Customs services across the United States. We are proud to remain independent, focused, and committed to doing things the right way.

If you’re ready to move beyond just “filing entries” and start building a true career in Customs, we’d love to hear from you.
