  • Collaborate with Customer Excellence and Operations teams to ensure seamless pricing-to-execution transitions.
  • Work with Business Unit pricing teams to align strategies and optimize costs.
  • Drive sourcing initiatives to secure competitive rates for core services.
  • Analyze monthly pricing performance (wins, losses, margins) and identify improvement opportunities.
  • Ensure pricing requests are logged timely and accurately in internal systems.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of pricing processes and tools.

What we would like you to bring

  • Experience in freight forwarding or project logistics, preferably within sea and/or road transport.

  • Understanding of Incoterms®, international transport regulations, and basic customs principles.
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects and diverse stakeholders.
  • Customer-oriented mindset with a commercial and solution-driven approach with the ability to build trustful, long-term relationships.
  • Proactive, analytical, solution-oriented and independent working style — able to challenge assumptions and propose alternatives.
  • High attention to detail, especially regarding data quality and cost breakdown accuracy.
  • Strong negotiation and supplier management abilities.
  • Advanced Excel skills and confidence using digital pricing tools, CRM.
  • Fluent English (spoken, written, and comprehension) for effective communication in a global environment. Chinese, Bulgarian, Serbian, or Hungarian language skills are a plus.
