Because ACE Tier II analysts interact daily with trade organizations, brokers, importers, and other stakeholders who speak the language of trade, candidates who can communicate fluently in trade terminology (entry types, bonds, PGAs, harmonized tariff schedules, port operations, and related concepts) will be best positioned to succeed in this role. Background in trade brokerage, freight forwarding, port operations, or a related trade industry role; candidates who have worked alongside licensed customs brokers, port directors, or trade compliance officers are strongly encouraged to apply.
