Full Job Description

North Star Container, LLC is looking to expand our operational staff to accommodate additional growth.

The Import & Export Operations Specialist manages the end-to-end execution of international cargo movements. This role is responsible for coordinating with global agents, ocean carriers, airlines, and domestic trucking companies to ensure freight moves seamlessly from origin to destination. The ideal candidate balances exceptional customer service with a sharp eye for customs compliance, document accuracy, and operational efficiency.

Key Responsibilities

Shipment Coordination & Booking: Manage the daily lifecycle of inbound and outbound shipments across ocean (FCL/LCL), air, and domestic freight modes. Secure carrier bookings, optimize routings, and coordinate first/last-mile drayage and trucking.
Documentation Mastery: Prepare, review, and distribute critical international shipping documents, including Commercial Invoices, Packing Lists, Bills of Lading (HBL/MBL), Air Waybills (HAWB/MAWB), and Arrival Notices.
Customs & Compliance Guarding: Ensure all shipments comply with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) regulations, international trade laws, and Partner Government Agencies (PGAs). Verify Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) codes and coordinate with customs brokers for timely clearance.
Financial Management: Issue accurate and timely client billing/invoicing. Review and approve vendor invoices (co-loaders, ocean lines, truckers) to safeguard profit margins and resolve billing discrepancies.
Milestone Tracking & Communication: Proactively track shipments using Freight Management Systems (FMS) and carrier portals. Provide clear, real-time milestone updates to clients and troubleshoot delays (port congestion, customs holds, blank sailings).
