Freightos is the global booking and payment platform for the trillion-dollar freight industry. Our platform is used by hundreds of airlines and ocean liners, thousands of freight companies, and over ten thousand importers and exporters. Oh, did we mention we’re traded publicly on the Nasdaq (CRGO!)
We shoot for the sky and all seven seas. We are already the world’s largest digital air cargo booking platform (yes, it feels good to say that. Real good). We want to extend those good vibes across the seven seas, while providing freight companies with more online sales tools. Trust me, that social media tech company you’re also looking at doesn’t move the world like we do. But without a world class, Messi-level Project Manager, we’ll never make it happen. No pressure. You got this.
You’ll be leading roll-out projects for our Enterprise and SMB customers, keeping them happier than a Pharell Williams (and he’s happy). The role requires a blended skillset like customer-tailored strategies, relationship, phenomenal customer life-cycle management; the ability to stay cool as a chilled cucumber in gripping freight situations, keeping a smile on and good spirits to match.
Role

Do you excel at transforming ideas into reality while ensuring the highest quality of project delivery? When details are overlooked, projects fail. And that's a big deal.
