Role & responsibilities

: To execute export and domestic outward logistics and related commercial activities, ensuring accurate documentation, timely dispatch and delivery, compliance with Customs and tax requirements, and effective use of resources while meeting Workplace, Health and Safety (EHS) standards.

Major Accountabilities: Own day-to-day execution of export and domestic dispatches, from shipment planning and documentation through loading, clearance, transportation, tracking and delivery confirmation.

Maintain statutory and shipment records, coordinate internal teams and logistics partners, control avoidable costs, and escalate risks affecting compliance, safety or delivery commitments.

- Export shipment execution: Plan shipments against confirmed orders and material readiness; arrange container and vessel bookings, stuffing, transportation and clearance; meet shipping instructions, documentation and port cut-off dates; track shipments through delivery.
- Customs compliance: Coordinate applicable permissions, declarations, material-movement records and statutory submissions with Customs authorities. Confirm required clearance before dispatch and maintain complete, traceable records for verification and audits.
- Domestic dispatch and clearance: Schedule vehicles and deliveries; verify invoices, delivery challans, e-way bills and transport documents as applicable; track delivery and obtain proof of delivery. For Domestic Tariff Area (DTA) clearances, coordinate applicable Bill of Entry processing, duty-payment confirmation and Customs release with the buyer, Customs broker and Finance. Support import documentation and clearance only where assigned.
- Documentation accuracy and closure: Verify consistency of product descriptions, quantities, weights, values, customer details and shipment references across commercial and transport documents. Maintain pre- and post-shipment files,



submit assigned statutory returns on time, and coordinate document handover and shipment closure with Sales, Finance and other concerned teams.
- Service-provider coordination: Coordinate Customs brokers/Customs House Agents (CHA), freight forwarders, shipping lines, transporters and inspection agencies. Confirm bookings, equipment availability, clearance status and delivery commitments; resolve operational issues and promptly escalate delays or exceptions.
- Cost control and bill verification: Monitor freight, handling, clearance and other logistics expenses against approved rates. Track container free time and returns to prevent avoidable detention and demurrage; verify transporter, CHA and forwarder bills against agreed terms and supporting records before submitting for approval.
- Tracking and reporting: Maintain SAP dispatch records, shipment trackers, management reports and compliance calendars. Report planned versus actual dispatches, delivery status, pending documents, logistics costs and exceptions, with an action owner and closure date; coordinate with Production, Planning, Packing, Quality, Sales and Finance.
- Packing, loading and cargo protection: Coordinate with Packing, Loading and Quality teams to confirm packing suitability, identification, quantities, container/vehicle condition, weight records, cargo securing and seal details. Maintain loading evidence and resolve discrepancies before dispatch to prevent damage, shortages and incorrect shipments.
