Shipper

In this Shipper role, you will be responsible for more than just moving freight. You will manage the vital flow of information and goods that keeps the steel manufacturing sector moving. This position requires a professional who is comfortable operating a counterbalance forklift while simultaneously managing complex administrative tasks. Because our client operates on an international scale, the Shipper must be proficient in handling Bill of Lading (BOL) requirements and intricate customs documentation. Accuracy is paramount in this manufacturing & logistics environment to ensure compliance with international trade regulations and timely delivery to customers.

While this position is located in Ontario, we recognize the importance of clear communication in a globalized economy. For this Shipper position, bilingualism is not a formal requirement; however, a strong command of English is essential for completing international shipping documents and interacting with logistics partners across North America. As part of the Randstad Operational team, you will be supported by recruiters who are true experts in the manufacturing & logistics field, ensuring you are placed in an environment where your skills in steel manufacturing are valued and developed.
