Global Logistics Executive – Heathrow

Are you an experienced Freight Forwarding professional looking for your next challenge?

We're recruiting for a Global Logistics Executive to join a highly respected logistics provider based near Heathrow Airport. This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing organisation specialising in time-critical logistics, freight forwarding and global transportation.

The Role

You'll be responsible for coordinating urgent international shipments across air, sea and road freight, ensuring exceptional customer service while maintaining full customs and regulatory compliance.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Managing import and export shipments from booking through to delivery.
  • Completing customs entries and shipping documentation.
  • Liaising with customers, airlines, hauliers, overseas agents and suppliers.
  • Preparing quotations and obtaining freight rates.
  • Providing shipment updates and resolving operational issues.
  • Maintaining accurate job costing and operational records.

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.
