About the role

Brisbane, QLD | Full-time | Office-based

Take ownership of international export shipments in a role focused on sea freight coordination, accurate records and proactive problem-solving.

We are seeking an experienced Shipment Coordinator to join our logistics team in Brisbane. Reporting to the Logistics Manager, you will coordinate international shipments, primarily refrigerated containers and temperature-sensitive cargo, ensuring bookings and schedules meet agreed requirements.

This opportunity suits an organised export logistics professional with a strong background in freight forwarding or sea freight export operations who enjoys managing multiple shipments from booking through to shipment progression.

About the role

Working closely with suppliers, shipping lines, freight forwarders and internal teams, you will:
  • Coordinate international sea freight bookings, primarily for refrigerated containers and temperature-sensitive cargo.
  • Confirm cargo readiness, booking inputs and shipping document requirements with suppliers.
  • Monitor vessel schedules, manage booking amendments and communicate delays or changes promptly.
  • Resolve operational issues and escalate risks where required to keep shipments progressing.
  • Maintain accurate shipment records, including booking details, confirmations, schedules and key dates.
  • Collaborate with Shipping & Documentation, Procurement and Sales teams to meet operational deadlines.
  • Assist with international airfreight coordination as required.
About you

You bring at least five years’ experience in international shipping, export operations, freight forwarding or a closely related logistics environment, including hands-on experience coordinating sea freight exports.
You will also demonstrate:
  • Experience working directly with shipping lines and/or freight forwarders.
  • The ability to work independently and take accountability for assigned shipments.
  • Excellent attention to detail and accurate operational recordkeeping.
  • Strong organisation and time management across high shipment volumes and competing deadlines.
  • A proactive approach to identifying issues, following up outstanding matters and resolving problems.
  • Clear, professional communication and effective stakeholder coordination.
  • Strong computer literacy and the ability to learn operational systems quickly.
Experience in a busy international freight forwarding environment will be highly regarded, particularly exposure to refrigerated cargo, food exports, agricultural products or commodity trading. Familiarity with Australian export requirements, international airfreight and FOB shipping arrangements involving overseas suppliers will also be advantageous.

Interested? If you are an experienced shipping professional who takes ownership, follows through and stays organised when schedules change, apply now with your resume.
