£ 23,800 plus shift pay supplement

Everything we eat, everything we wear and most of what we touch has a supply chain. This is just once of the reasons why a career within logistics can be so diverse yet so rewarding. Are you passionate about customer service and enjoy the thought of working in a fast-paced environment?  Are you looking for a role where you can communicate with a variety of customers, drivers, colleagues, and other key stakeholders? A Customer Service & Operations Co-ordinator position we have in Felixstowe could be the one for you!!!

Warning, if you’re looking for a 9-5 Monday to Friday desk job, this isn’t the role for you. Our operation runs constantly so we need you to be super flexible as our shifts run Monday to Friday, 8 hrs. on a 6-week rotation.  This includes Days, Evenings and Nights, and one Tuesday to Saturday day shift. If you have a gregarious nature, but enjoy working as part of a team, willing to take responsibility and make informed decisions, then please get in touch with us. Ideally you will have previous experience of working in a customer facing role, with the ability to multitask as you’ll be working in the heart of logistics processing all bookings and handling customer enquiries efficiently.

Assisting with customs clearance and customers daily, with any queries they have – don’t worry we’ll give you the all the training you need so you can deliver the best service possible. We understand that to be successful we need to grow and develop our talent. Communicating with our teams in both the Ports of Felixstowe and Immingham including delivering drivers, you’ll also be providing support in relation to Vessel maters, such as crewing changes. All culminating in safeguarding and enhancing the service level offered by DFDS and surpassing our client expectations. It’s a full-on busy role, so if you’re looking for a challenge where every day is different, this is the role for you!
