Job Description - Branch Manager - Global Freight Forwarder Southampton

Are you ready to take the next step in your freight forwarding career?
We're working with a well-established global freight forwarder that's looking for a commercially minded and driven Branch Manager to lead its Southampton office.

This is a fantastic opportunity for:
  • An experienced Business Development Manager in freight forwarding ready to step up into leadership
  • An established Branch Manager looking for a fresh challenge
  • Or a strong Supervisor who's eager to move into a senior management role
What You'll Bring:
  • Proven experience in freight forwarding (import/export, ideally multimodal)
  • A strong sales background with a record of winning new clients
  • Commercial acumen with the ability to lead both sales and operations
  • A hands-on leadership style with a passion for team growth and branch success
  • The flexibility to thrive in a smaller, growing branch with exciting plans ahead
The Role:

You'll be responsible for driving both sales and day-to-day operations.
While the company is planning to hire a dedicated BDM soon, you'll initially take the lead commercially - playing a key role in setting the foundation for the branch's ongoing expansion.

Package & Benefits:
  • Salary: £50,000 - £60,000 (DOE)
  • Bonus Scheme (Branch Manager level)
  • Company Car or Car Allowance + Fuel Card (for petrol/diesel vehicles)
