Cargo Screening Compliance Coordinator

About The Position

The Inglewood facility is a TSA Certified Cargo Screening Facility (CCSF) — meaning the company itself is accountable for screening cargo that moves on passenger and cargo aircraft worldwide. The Cargo Screening Compliance Coordinator is the single accountable person at this branch who ensures every shipment leaving the facility is safe to fly, every screener is properly trained and documented, and every log, audit, and piece of evidence is ready when TSA or DHS walks through the door unannounced. In the hiring manager’s words: “It’s an anti-terrorism program that we’re running here — to make sure there are no explosives inside of these packages leaving.” The role exists because the facility’s CCSF status — and by extension, its ability to move cargo at all — depends on it.
