Summary

I have been in customs brokerage for over 2 years working remotely from home. I have been employed within lots of different areas since joining DB Schenker including the finance side of the business and during the last 3 months have been in the 3rd party clearance team. I still feel that I have alot to learn as training is not one of my employers best qualities. I am more than happy to work as part of a team or a lone worker as I am now.

I also have general administration skills which comes from working in these roles since leaving college at the age of 18. Detail-oriented team player with strong organizational skills. Ability to handle multiple projects simultaneously with a high degree of accuracy.


I am looking to To seek and maintain full-time position that offers professional challenges utilizing interpersonal skills, excellent time management and problem-solving skills.
