# Logistics & Freight Manager

> Nokwol UK Limited · London, United Kingdom · Full-time · Posted 2026-10-02

**Salary:** GBP 50,000–60,000

**Workplace:** on_site

## Description

**Logistics & Freight Manager  
Location**:  Central London (office based), with occasional supplier visits  
**Salary Range:** £50-60k  
**Job Type**: Full-time, permanent

The Logistics & Freight Manager owns every inbound and outbound shipment for Nokwol, from factory pick-up to booked-in stock on the warehouse shelf. Nokwol drops new product every week, so the job is simple to state: get the right stock landed, cleared and sellable as fast as possible, with no surprises.

The role covers Nokwol own-brand product and third-party brands bought in for resale. It runs a mixed model: urgent air freight for launches and fast sellers, and sea freight for core essentials and replenishment.

**Purpose of the role**

-   Be the single point of control for all origin freight, with live visibility of every PO from pick-up to receipt.
-   Cut the time from factory to sellable stock, week after week.
-   Run UK import and EU freight to best-in-class speed and full compliance.
-   Manage UK export shipments and warehouse stock consolidation so stock sits where it sells.

**Key responsibilities**

-   Origin freight control (Nokwol and third-party brands)
-   Tracking and expediting, end to end
-   UK import and customs
-   UK export shipments
-   Warehouse consolidation and stock positioning
-   Suppliers, cost and continuous improvement

**Essential Knowledge, skills and experience**

-   3–5+ years in freight, logistics or supply chain, ideally in fashion, footwear or fast-moving retail with weekly drops.
-   Hands-on management of air and sea freight (FCL, LCL, consolidated air and express), from origin booking to delivery.
-   Strong working knowledge of UK import procedure: the Customs Declaration Service (CDS), commodity codes, rules of origin, customs valuation, duty and import VAT, deferment accounts and postponed VAT accounting.
-   Clear understanding of post-Brexit EU trade: EORI, UK–EU rules of origin under the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, EU customs, IOSS and DDP for B2C.
-   UK export procedure, export declarations and proof of export.
-   Working knowledge of Incoterms (EXW, FOB, FCA, DAP, DDP) and when each one is right.
-   Experience managing forwarders, brokers and hauliers and pushing them for results.
-   Confident with an ERP or tracking system (Fulfil ERP is a plus) and strong in Excel or Google Sheets.
-   Best-in-class import speed: what the candidate must know
-   The right person knows exactly what is possible and how to get there:
-   Pre-lodged declarations: customs entries submitted before goods land, so air freight can clear on arrival and go straight to the warehouse.
-   Simplified procedures: Customs Freight Simplified Procedures (CFSP) and Entry in the Declarant's Records (EIDR) to move goods before a full declaration.
-   Trusted-trader status: Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) and its benefits for fewer checks and faster release.
-   Direct delivery: airside or near-airport clearance with same-day haulage to the warehouse, and port-to-warehouse delivery with pre-booked slots for sea freight.
-   Pre-alerts and documents: full, correct paperwork before departure, so there are no holds for missing or wrong documents.
-   Duty and VAT tools: duty deferment and postponed VAT accounting, so payment never holds up release.
-   Duty relief options: customs warehousing, inward processing and returned goods relief, where they suit re-export or EU stock.
