Job Description

This role is a trainee role which will be pitched at the level of the successful applicant and normally involves a 6-12 month training period, based on prior experience and knowledge. Being DGSA qualified is not mandatory, but will be advantageous, as will holding a UK CAA Instructor qualification.

Candidates who do not hold these current and valid certifications should still apply if they have strong Dangerous Goods industry experience, as these certifications can be provided and obtained during the intitial training period. Industry experience and being the right fit for the team will be equally weighted by us.

As the main point of contact for our clients, excellent customer service attitude and ability to work independently and part of a team is critical to ensure service excellence to our clients at all times.

This role will be based from home with a 50/50 split between home work and travelling nationally and internationally, as required (during the training period, the national travel will be higher than once qualified to facilitate training and shadowing).

This role will suit someone who is friendly, professional, has a high-level of accuracy and enjoys finding solutions to any issues that we face.
