Summary
Office Manager – Felixstowe
Are you the kind of person who thrives on keeping things moving?
We’re an ambitious logistics company based in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom with our feet firmly planted in Felixstowe — and we’re looking for an experienced Office Manager who’s ready to roll up the sleeves, lead a great team, and help us grow.
What you’ll be doing
You’ll be the engine room of our Felixstowe office. That means keeping day-to-day operations running smoothly, leading and motivating your team, and actively driving sales — particularly reloading trailers for the continent and developing our forwarding business. No two days are the same, and that’s exactly how we like it.
What we’re looking for
Solid, hands-on experience in transport and freight forwarding — you know how this industry works
A strong grasp of UK–continent customs requirements
A sharp commercial mindset — you understand margins, costs, and what drives performance
Real sales ability — you’re comfortable picking up the phone and opening doors
Natural leadership skills — your team trusts you and you know how to get the best out of people
Great communicator — clear, confident, friendly and personal
What makes you stand out
You don’t wait to be told. You spot an opportunity and you go for it. You’re organised without being rigid, decisive without being difficult, and you bring a positive energy that the whole office and company feels.
Interested?
We’d love to hear from you. Send your CV and a short note about yourself to b.houweling@europeanroadcargo.com — tell us why Felixstowe and why us.
Let’s get moving.
