I am a seasoned ocean/air import/export coordinator as well as international operations manager currently working with a household goods moving company in their international division.I am interested in any air & ocean import/export position with a viable and progressive company that would be able to be done remotely. If remote work isn’t possible, I would also consider hybrid or full-on-site work if it’s close enough to my home. I have no problem traveling as needed for training, meetings, conferences, and so on.
