The Clearance Agent supports the timely and accurate customs clearance of international shipments in Australia. Typical requirements include experience in freight forwarding, customs brokerage, logistics, or a related field; knowledge of Australian import and export regulations; strong attention to detail; computer proficiency; and effective written and verbal communication. A customs-related qualification or relevant industry experience may be advantageous. The successful candidate is expected to review shipment documentation, prepare and submit clearance information, liaise with customs authorities, customers, carriers, and internal teams, resolve documentation issues, and meet service and compliance targets. Reliability, accuracy, customer focus, and the ability to manage competing priorities in a deadline-driven environment are important.

Australia offers employment opportunities across logistics, freight forwarding, customs brokerage, warehousing, transport, aviation, healthcare, construction, technology, and professional services. Major employment hubs include Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, and regional centres.
