World Courier, a Cencora company, is a global leader in specialized transportation and logistics for the life sciences industry — and we are looking for a driven, detail-oriented professional to join our operations in Brazil.


As an International Logistics Coordinator, you will manage the end-to-end coordination of import and export shipments, ensuring compliance with customs regulations, cold chain integrity, and the highest standards of service for our clients. This is a dynamic, high-responsibility role at the intersection of global logistics, pharmaceutical supply chain, and customer excellence.

  • Keep World Courier offices, clients, and all relevant stakeholders consistently updated throughout the import/export process
  • Create, manage, and monitor import/export orders and operational reports within the World Courier system
  • Ensure full compliance with World Courier procedures, work instructions, and standard operating processes at all times
  • Coordinate with drivers, airport staff, and global offices to replenish ice packs and maintain cold chain integrity throughout the shipment lifecycle
  • Instruct operations teams on routing, packaging, labeling, documentation, handling requirements, and temperature control standards
  • Notify importers, brokers, airlines, and airport authorities of shipment arrivals; confirm temperature-controlled storage arrangements and update tracking systems
  • Monitor customs clearance status; arrange recovery of empty boxes and temperature monitors; analyze monitor deviations and initiate investigations as required
  • Identify and escalate shipment risks — particularly those related to temperature excursions — and propose proactive preventive solutions
  • Support leadership by reporting shipment issues, delays, client feedback, and opportunities for process improvement
  • Participate in the handling of critical shipments, including billing processes and cell and gene therapy logistics; contribute to team and client meetings, new-hire onboarding, and mentoring of junior colleagues
  • Conduct profitability analysis of shipments and provide Corrective Actions and Preventive Actions (CAPA) as required
