Are you an operational leader within the freight forwarding industry looking for your next step? Are you a people person with passion for logistics and ready to lead a Branch operation? For over 40 years, we have served our clients with our Air, Ocean, Road, and Warehousing portfolio and we have enjoyed another very successful year at cargo-partner having strengthened our global position by joining the Nippon Express Group.
