- Troubleshooting: Processing irregularities and handling ad-hoc requests in the daily road transport operations.
Your Profile:
- Education: Successfully completed commercial vocational training (e.g., Shipping Agent / Speditionskaufmann/-frau, Office Administrator / Bürokaufmann/-frau, or comparable qualification).
- Experience: Initial professional experience in an assistant or operational function within the logistics/forwarding sector is an advantage.

- IT Skills: Proficient in MS Office (especially Excel, PowerPoint) and ideally experience with a CRM system.
- Stability: The security and structure of a globally operating Japanese corporation.
- Versatility: A varied range of tasks with interfaces to all modes of transport and business areas, right at Stuttgart Airport.
- Development: Individual further training opportunities and career prospects within a global network.
- Compensation: An attractive, performance-based salary package, including 30 days of annual leave and a company pension scheme (BAV).
