**About the Company**

Our client has a large footprint in the GIT market, with a relatively small, but well picked staff compliment.
- We work in an open plan office with an energetic vibe, so often the whole office engages in chats, albeit work related or a little bit of “fun” chat.
- We are a UMA, and deal with brokers, not transporters directly. So there is no direct selling or cold calling clients, as we rely on our large portfolio of broker to bring business to us.
- We pride ourselves in good turn around times and our friendly and efficient handling of queries and instructions.
- The team player aspect comes into play at times when it is busier than usual. As a team it is important that the whole department is up to date, and therefore we all take work off each other and (although not often) if need be, we work a bit longer than office hours to stay up to date. This is very seldom and no staff is penalized if they don’t work outside of office hours.
- Our staff are not required to take calls after hours, and therefore a company cell phone is not given.
- Our dress code is simple, and while jean’s are allowed, it needs to be understood that level of professionalism is important as we do on occasion have brokers in the office for a meeting. So rule of thumb - no torn jeans, no crop tops, no shorts, and no slippers. Unless we are doing something fun like “slipper day”.
- We do not close over December, however, we do work skeleton staff over this time, and for this reason December leave between Christmas and new year is on a turn by turn basis.
