What do we do?

The business has three pillars.

• Ferries – Established in 2003, Freightlink is one of Europe’s largest, whole of market freight ferry agencies. We have achieved this through a complementary focus of delivering digitalisation and impeccable customer service.
• Freight forwarding – Freightlink Reload provides first class freight forwarding services throughout Europe by integrating with Freightlink’s freight ferry customers we can offer unrivalled access to hauliers throughout Europe.
• Customs - CustomsLink our newest business was created in response to post Brexit border complexities and takes a fresh approach to an old established business by digitalising the processes.

What are we looking for?

Many roles, one job… The number of roles that a customer service professional might have to fill on any given day is a big part of what makes the job so challenging and exciting. It’s also a big part of what makes the job so rewarding. Helping, teaching, selling, supporting and the rest of the customer service roles are really important to keeping our customers happy and the business growing.

There are so many ways to deliver value to our customers, make people happy and help us grow. Understanding each of the roles helps us get better at all of them and turns us into stronger support professionals.

In support, you’re in charge of customer WOW: that little bit of extra that sets us apart in our customer’s eyes from the legions of businesses out there doing “just enough.”

Customer WOW can take the form of small touches or grand gestures, but when you hear their voice smile or get that email response full of smileys and exclamation points, you’ll know you’ve delivered it!

Be a part of it! Join us now.

And what will you be doing?

You will provide first class customer service and deal with customer queries via email and telephone. You will process bookings, provide price quotations, liaise with ferry and tunnel operators, complete other administrative tasks, manage customer accounts and input data onto our bespoke online platform. But above all you will be in charge of our customer WOW.

Full on the job training is provided within the office environment therefore you must be able to commute daily.

We work shift patterns Monday – Friday, 35 hours per week. Weekend overtime is paid at extra rate.

What do you need to succeed?

You will need to be strong communicator with professional telephone manner and a can-do attitude. Your proactive approach, drive, resilience and focus on problem solving will be the key to your success.

You need to be customer focused with exceptional attention to detail, be flexible and adaptable to quickly changing priorities and most of all a great team player. The teamwork is what makes us succeed!
