In the Houston Service Center, we have about 20 people on the team. Exports has about 9 team members. Imports, trucking, air freight and warehousing have 5 in total. In addition, we have 2 outside sales / business development professionals and 3 team members in procurement, contracting, inside sales and pricing. We are also in the process of starting a new US Customs Brokerage division that will be based in the Houston Service Center, supporting the entire US organization.
We typically host an annual customer and vendor appreciation event in late April to recognize and thank our partners. From time to time, we also invite customers and vendors to join us for a Houston Astros baseball game, creating a more relaxed setting to connect and network. In the office, our team especially enjoys getting into the spirit of Halloween each year by dressing up in creative costumes.
We offer a wide range of career opportunities across all key areas of our business. In Export, our teams handle end-to-end operations including bookings, documentation, customer service and transport coordination. On the Import side, colleagues manage operations and bookings as well, while also taking care of customer service, transport and warehousing activities. Our Sales and Business Development teams focus on driving new business growth and building long-term customer relationships. In Procurement, Contracting, Inside Sales and Pricing, we work on developing competitive, tailor-made logistics solutions for our customers. We are also building a dedicated US Customs Brokerage team as part of an exciting new program for FMS North America. In addition, we are expanding our air freight offering, which is becoming an increasingly important and fast-growing part of our business.
We have a fun competitive work environment that allows for decision making, team work, professional and personal growth.

3 Questions to Ryan Kasper | FMS Houston
My role is import operations. I assist in handling import sea freight and drayage. In addition I also work in pricing, warehousing, and domestic trucking.
My development has been outstanding. Prior to joining FMS I did not have much freight forwarding experience. I have been able to learn the industry from great leadership as well as the day to day experience working with our customers.
I enjoy working at FMS because I am encouraged to be myself. We have a professional environment where our individual desks are treated as “mini business”. We take pride in successful and profitable operations as well as the relationships with our customers. I believe that is an advantage against our competition.
