SOFT SKILLS :

This is a hybrid position, but the individual in this role will need to work and train 100% on-site for an estimated timeline of the first 3 months. The on-site training period is based on the individual and how long it takes them to learn our processes and work more independently, so there is a chance that the on-site training could last more than 3 months before the hybrid work schedule would be introduced. There will be a review after 3 months in which the manager will determine whether the Customs Compliance Specialist is ready to begin working the hybrid schedule of 2 days from home and 3 days on-site per week. The hybrid work schedule is based on manager’s discretion and can change depending on business needs.

Krones, Inc. offers an outstanding opportunity to be involved with and challenged by leading-edge technologies, further career opportunities to learn and develop skills, a flexible work schedule and a competitive salary and benefits program.
