What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and a collaborative work environment.

I am an accomplished shipping coordinator with over 5 years of experience in the service sector, particularly in logistics and project management. My career has been marked by a proven track record of coordinating freight forwarding and customs clearance, ensuring timely deliveries, and maintaining strong relationships with clients and suppliers. I have worked with leading international companies, including Metito Overseas Qatar WLL, where I honed my skills in managing complex shipping operations.

Throughout my career, I have successfully handled major government projects in Qatar, such as the North Field Expansion and Qatar Petroleum, as well as international projects in Indonesia and Kazakhstan. My ability to analyze carrier billing, negotiate rates, and streamline shipping processes has consistently contributed to cost reductions and improved efficiency. I am passionate about sharing my knowledge and skills to achieve corporate goals in a challenging environment.
