Your role will involve ensuring customs compliance in Finland according to applicable laws, rules, and regulations. You will also serve as a subject matter expert on customs compliance, providing interpretation, guidance, integration, compliance, and assessment.

Additionally, you will support efforts to maintain a customs-compliant supply chain, coordinate supply chain risk assessment and mitigation strategies, and ensure proactive monitoring and communication of the impact of customs compliance and changing regulations to all key stakeholders, both internal and external.

Your responsibilities for the role include, but are not limited to:

  1. Being the local point of contact for customs matters for both internal and external stakeholders (customers).
  2. Managing relationships with authorities, such as Finnish customs.
  3. Following up on and coordinating customs clearances, including brokerage management and special customs procedures such as inward processing.
  4. Identifying local value-adding opportunities, minimising compliance risks and import duties, and utilising simplified entry procedures and local clearance authorisations.
  5. Ensuring the integration of necessary customs compliance activities into other functions' work streams to maintain customs compliance reliability.
  6. Collaborating with key stakeholders to bridge possible gaps in the supply chain flow.

The following will enable you to succeed in this role:

  1. BSc or MSc in a relevant field of education.
  2. Understanding of the global and EU-level customs compliance environment, including rules and regulations, with the ability to translate these into clear business requirements and concrete actions.
  3. Work experience in addressing customs compliance-related challenges, with a proven track record of resolving them.
  4. Willingness to tackle challenging situations with positive reinforcement to ensure sustainable relationships with internal and external stakeholders.
  5. Customer service-oriented mindset.
  6. Ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team.
  7. Experience working in a global and multicultural environment.
  8. Fluency in written and spoken English and Finnish, along with good presentation and communication skills.
