About FedEx Express Global Trade Services
FedEx Express moves goods across more international borders than any other carrier — navigating a labyrinth of trade agreements, tariff schedules, export controls, and import regulations that vary by country, commodity, and transaction value. International Trade Specialists are the regulatory experts who ensure every cross-border shipment complies with U.S. export administration regulations, foreign import requirements, and international trade sanctions — protecting both FedEx and its customers from costly compliance violations.

You will screen shipments against denied party lists, classify commodities under Export Administration Regulations, advise customers on trade documentation requirements, and support government agency audits. This is a specialized compliance role requiring deep knowledge of international trade law.
Key Responsibilities
- Screen all outbound international shipments against U.S. government denied party, entity, and sanctions lists.
