TELL US A BIT ABOUT YOURSELF...
My name is Jo Sawyer – but you can call me the Queen of Forwarding!
As a Multimodal Operator at SEKO Southampton, I am responsible for:
- Imports and exports for different modes of transport
- Saving you time. I make it easy to arrange the movement of cargo between different locations using the right modes of transport, in the shortest possible time
- Finding cost efficiencies by choosing the best transport options to send goods
- Liaising with transport bodies, contacts and officials
What is a typical day in the life?
EVERY DAY STARTS WITH...
A coffee. I wouldn't advise anyone talk to me before I've had my caffeine. I then have a quick moan about the parking, and begin my day! My morning consists of:
- Actioning emails. Customer service is a very important part of my role.
- Check in with my clients and make sure that everyone is happy and things are running smoothly.
Building strong relationships is critical for a Multimodal Operator; not only with clients but with transport bodies and officials too. I always strive to get the best deals for my clients.

PHEW, TIME FOR A BREAK...
On the lunch menu today is a panini - followed by some olives...
No day is complete without…
- Making sure all upcoming shipments are dealt with. We don't want any delays.
- Chatting with the CSG team. They work closely with one of our biggest customers. It's good to make sure we're always aligned.
