Senior Customs Consultant

Gateway Recruiting

Position Summary:

This individual will act as a collaborative, consultative advisor, working closely with partners and associates to deliver hands-on guidance across Canadian customs compliance. This role requires deep expertise in both legacy customs processes and the evolving CARM environment, with the ability to translate complex regulations into practical, business-focused solutions.

This position is primarily focused on import compliance and advisory, with exposure to broader trade matters as needed.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide Canadian customs consulting and advisory services to importers, exporters, and Non-Resident Importers across all Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA)-regulated matters
  • Advise on tariff classification, valuation, origin, and tariff treatment in accordance with Canadian customs legislation
  • Support clients with Canadian market entry strategies, including Non-Resident Importer (NRI) structures
  • Assist clients through CBSA verification audits, including preparation, documentation, and response strategy
  • Advise on and support voluntary disclosures and related risk mitigation strategies
  • Act as a subject matter expert on CARM, supporting clients through implementation and ongoing compliance
  • Apply expertise in both legacy (pre-CARM) and current regulatory frameworks to guide clients through transition
  • Draft and implement customs compliance manuals, policies, and standard operating procedures
  • Develop and deliver client training programs on Canadian customs compliance requirements
  • Partner closely with firm leadership to deliver integrated, client-focused advisory solutions
  • Act as a trusted advisor, translating complex regulatory requirements into clear, actionable business guidance

Qualifications:

  • 10+ years of experience in Canadian customs and international trade compliance
  • Deep knowledge of CBSA regulations and Canadian customs legislation
  • Proven hands-on experience with CARM and familiarity with legacy customs processes
  • Strong background in a consultative, client-facing environment (law firm, consulting firm, or in-house)
  • Expertise in tariff classification, valuation, origin, and trade compliance program development
  • Experience supporting CBSA audits, disclosures, and regulatory interactions
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to simplify complex regulatory concepts

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to high-quality, accurate work
  • High standards of rigor and accountability in deliverables
  • Recognized subject matter expertise in Canadian customs compliance
  • Collaborative, team-oriented mindset with the ability to work cross-functionally
  • Consistent focus on delivering high-quality client experience with a legal lens
