FORVIA Customs and Duties Graduate Role Offers 12 Months of Practical Experience
FORVIA customs graduate role: opportunity overview
Faurecia, part of FORVIA, is recruiting a Customs and Duties Graduate in Pretoria on a 12-month fixed-term contract. The employer’s vacancy closes on 10 November 2026. It reports to the Plant Controller; no salary amount is published.
Qualification and capability
Applicants need a National Diploma or bachelor’s degree in logistics, supply chain management, international trade, finance, accounting or a related discipline. Microsoft Excel, Word and PowerPoint proficiency, numerical accuracy, communication and deadline management are required. Basic import/export and customs knowledge is advantageous.
What the role involves
The graduate assists with shipping documentation, declarations, duty calculations, reconciliations, records, compliance checks and reporting. Coordination with clearing agents and internal teams forms part of the work. The role supports experienced staff; it is not described as an independent customs advisory appointment.
Practical application preparation
The following suggestions are independent editorial guidance, not additional employer requirements.
Explain how you check a document
Prepare a truthful example of comparing figures or records and spotting a discrepancy. Explain which source you treated as authoritative and what you did when information disagreed. Avoid claiming specialised customs knowledge you do not yet have. A clear explanation of a careful checking process can demonstrate the attention to detail sought by the employer.
Build an appropriate spreadsheet example
A small fictional shipment tracker can show organised thinking. Include dates, identifiers and a clear status column rather than confidential supplier data. If you use formulas, be ready to explain them and identify their limitations. This is optional preparation guidance, not an employer-required portfolio or a reason to submit unsolicited attachments.
Separate support from decision authority
Customs work can involve legal and financial consequences. When discussing a scenario, make clear when you would escalate an uncertainty instead of guessing. Use the official procedures and supervisor guidance in any eventual job. Do not present this article as customs, tax or legal advice.
Check the application destination
Use the employer-posted vacancy and its application control, or find the exact title on FORVIA’s careers site. Check the Pretoria duty station and 10 November closing date before submitting. Keep evidence of submission and clarify salary, start date and working arrangements with recruitment staff if shortlisted. A twelve-month contract is not a promise of permanent employment.
How to apply
Read the current official vacancy, follow its application link and complete the requested fields accurately. Review your documents and retain the submission confirmation.
