Export Specialist – Road Freight

Location: Felixstowe

Salary: Up to £35,000 + Bonus


I’m working with a well-established, family-owned freight forwarder in Felixstowe that is looking to add an Export Specialist – Road Freight to their team. This is a great opportunity if you’re looking for stability, career growth, and the chance to take real ownership of the export process.

The Role

In this position, you’ll be responsible for managing road freight exports from booking right through to final delivery. That includes handling customs clearance, preparing export documentation, arranging transport with hauliers, and ensuring everything runs smoothly from start to finish.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
