Working in shipping in Suffolk, Norfolk and Essex
Shipping in East Anglia revolves around Felixstowe, and the roles reach far beyond the quayside — liner agency, chartering, documentation, demurrage and detention, and the commercial teams who hold the customer relationships. Many of these employers are small offices doing serious volumes, so people get exposure quickly.
Roles we recruit
- Import and export clerk
- Liner agency operator
- Documentation coordinator
- Chartering and operations assistant
- Demurrage and detention controller
- Shipping manager
What employers look for
- Accuracy with documentation under real deadline pressure
- Understanding of bills of lading, manifests and release processes
- Confidence dealing directly with lines, hauliers and customers
- Comfort with in-house systems and spreadsheets
Pay and progression
Entry-level clerk roles start modestly, but shipping pay climbs quickly once you can run a desk unsupervised. Check the salary guide for a low, mid and top range in your area.
