Connecting the Freight and Logistics Industry With the Right People
For more than 16 years, People in Focus has been dedicated to one thing: helping the Australian freight and logistics industry find exceptional talent. We specialise exclusively in recruitment for International Freight Forwarding, Customs Brokerage, Import/Export, Transport, Shipping, Logistics, FMCG and related sectors. Over the years, we have built a strong reputation for personalised service, industry knowledge and long-standing client relationships.
