About the role

Befach (befach.com) helps Indian businesses import factory-direct from China: sourcing, QC, customs and delivery, end to end. We're hiring a CHA & Logistics Executive to own import clearance for our shipments at ports and airports across India, run from our Hyderabad office. You will report to Rajesh Saraf, Co-founder.

What you'll do

- Clear sea and air import shipments across India (JNPT/Nhava Sheva, Chennai, Mundra, Kolkata, Vizag, ICD Sanathnagar; Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad air cargo), coordinating remotely with CHAs, forwarders and CFS
- Prepare and check Bills of Entry on ICEGATE with our licensed CHA partners; HS classification; duty (BCD/SWS/IGST); assessment queries, examination, DO and out-of-charge
- Keep IEC, invoices, packing lists, BL/AWB and certificates (e.g. BIS) complete and error-free
- Calculate duty and landed cost before a shipment moves so client quotes are accurate; compare estimated vs actual duty on every BoE
- Build and negotiate a pan-India panel of forwarders, CHAs, CFS and transporters (2+ options per lane) and keep cutting cost per shipment / kg / CBM
- Support purchase: supplier follow-ups, POs, shipping documents from China
- Run a daily shipment tracker (ETA, status, blockers, cost) and send a daily update to the Co-founder
- Use Excel and AI tools (ChatGPT/Claude) to speed up HS lookups, document checks and cost comparisons

Must-haves




- 2-4 years hands-on import customs clearance (sea + air) at multiple Indian ports/airports: BoE on ICEGATE, HS classification, duty calculation, assessment queries, DO, CFS/ICD/air cargo
- Strong purchase and vendor negotiation - you can name a rate you brought down, from what to what
- Street smart and a strong communicator (English + Hindi) on calls and email with customs, shipping lines, CHAs, CFS and clients
- Valuable with numbers and Excel landed-cost sheets; already uses AI tools at work
- Based in Hyderabad (on-site, Banjara Hills)

Good to have
- MBA (Operations / Supply Chain / International Business), strong academic record
- China imports experience, customs G-card, Telugu
- Not needed: your own CHA licence (we work with licensed CHAs)

How you'll be measured
- Clearance turnaround (arrival to out-of-charge)
- Duty / landed-cost estimate accuracy vs actual BoE
- Freight + CHA cost per shipment / kg / CBM
- Zero shipments delayed by document errors
- On-time delivery to client
