Job Description

DG Solutions are a large Dangerous Goods Support and Training organisation across the UK and into Europe.

DGS are a young and dynamic organisation that work with many clients from micro-businesses, to large multinationals helping them with all aspects of advice, support and training for the logistics and shipping of chemicals, batteries, radioactives and explosives.

Due to our expansion, DGS are opening a new office in Horsham in late 2025 and are looking for motivated operations team members, who will need to have a strong logistics and administration background and experience working with UK Couriers (FedEx, UPS, DHL etc.), would be an advantage.
