The role covers international freight from China, Dubai–Qatar shipments, GCC and international customer deliveries, and local deliveries within Qatar. The ideal candidate must have hands-on experience coordinating with courier companies, freight forwarders, and customs-clearance providers. This is a logistics-focused position, not a general operations or administrative role.

Coordinate GCC and international customer deliveries, as well as local deliveries within Qatar.

Arrange shipment bookings, collections, deliveries, and proof-of-delivery confirmation. Maintain accurate shipment trackers with booking dates, air waybill numbers, shipping methods, ETDs, ETAs, customs status, and delivery progress. Follow up continuously on delayed, held, missing, damaged, returned, or failed deliveries and ensure issues are resolved. Prepare, organise, and verify shipping and customs documents, including commercial invoices, packing lists, air waybills, and supporting documents. Coordinate return shipments, reverse logistics, and claims related to delayed, lost, or damaged deliveries. Review courier and freight invoices, verify applied rates and charges, and report billing discrepancies. Compare courier and freight providers based on cost, delivery speed, reliability, service quality, and coverage. Negotiate shipping rates and service terms with existing providers. Research, evaluate, and onboard new courier, freight, and delivery providers when required. Maintain complete and organised digital records for shipments, invoices, rates, claims, and logistics documents. Coordinate with the supply chain, inventory, store, customer service, and finance teams on logistics-related matters. Prepare regular logistics reports covering shipment status, delays, delivery performance, claims, costs, and pending issues. Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Logistics, Supply Chain Management, Transportation, Business Administration, or a related field. Two to four years of relevant experience in logistics, courier operations, freight forwarding, cross-border shipping, or e-commerce logistics. Practical experience dealing directly with courier companies, freight forwarders, and delivery providers. Good understanding of international shipping, customs documentation, shipment tracking, and last-mile delivery. Experience reviewing shipping rates, courier invoices, and logistics charges. Strong negotiation, problem-solving, and follow-up skills. Good knowledge of Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets. Strong written and verbal communication skills in English.
