It's more than a job

When you work in Freight Logistics and Operations at Kuehne+Nagel, you play a key role in optimising processes and ensuring that inventory and shipments move efficiently. But that is not all. Your work also helps ensure that vital medicines reach patients on time and supports other essential deliveries, from wind turbines to semiconductors. At Kuehne+Nagel, our contribution counts in more ways than we imagine.

The Air Logistics Customer Care Specialist plays a critical role in delivering an exceptional customer experience every time a customer engages with Kuehne + Nagel. As a key member of our Customer Care Locations (CCLs), this specialist is responsible for direct customer interaction, proactive service, effective problem resolution, and diligent follow-up. The role also collaborates closely with our sales teams and ensures that our Operational Care Centers (OCCs) receive complete and accurate information-both operational and system-related-so they can successfully execute on behalf of our customers.

How you create impact

  • Maintain real-time visibility of customer transactions in AirLOG by updating route maps and adhering to the Airfreight 2.0 Tag methodology.
  • Ensure all customer information is accurately integrated into our core operating systems by initiating Business Profile creations or updates, entering customer quotations into AirLOG/QTAir, and maintaining up-to-date Customer Wiki pages.
  • Manage, prioritize, and respond to customer inquiries daily across multiple communication channels, ensuring timely and effective support.
  • Monitor Shared Service Center (SSC) performance related to Customer Care processes to ensure service expectations are met.
  • Partner with the Airfreight Process Manager to enhance SSC utilization and support automation initiatives that improve Customer Care workflows.
  • Provide timely escalation support to the SSC when additional assistance is required for Customer Care processes.
  • Collaborate with K+N Sales to develop customer-specific work instructions and implement continuous improvement actions that strengthen overall customer relationships.
  • Work closely with the Operational Care Centre (OCC) to uphold service commitments by analyzing Customer KPI reports and helping implement corrective and preventative actions.
  • Partner with the Revenue Cost Centre to ensure accurate and timely billing by validating that all quotes, rates, and agreements align with financial requirements and support gross profit optimization.
  • Complete Forwarding Sub Ledger closures for customer shipments in ACON, meeting all corporate standards for accuracy and timeliness.
  • Receive and process final customer rate requests (via FreightNet or through the Pricing Team), ensuring seamless and compliant rate handling.
What we would like you to bring
  • 3+ years of experience in freight forwarding or 3PL environments, with strong knowledge of Airfreight rules, regulations, and industry best practices.
  • Proficient in the Microsoft Office Suite, including Outlook, Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and related productivity tools.
  • Demonstrated ability to support both customers and internal stakeholders, ensuring service excellence and high satisfaction.
  • Proactive self-starter who exercises strong judgment and knows when to independently drive actions or escalate appropriately.
  • Results-oriented, consistently striving to meet and exceed performance expectations.
  • Exceptional time management, prioritization, and follow-up capabilities in a fast-paced environment.
  • Outstanding organizational and multitasking skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously.
  • Active listener and clear communicator, able to convey information effectively across diverse audiences.
  • Strong critical thinking and decision-making abilities, with sound judgment in complex or time-sensitive situations.
