LVS Analyst – DHL Express – Brampton, ON

DHL Express is looking for a detail-oriented LVS Analyst to join their National Office team in Brampton, Ontario. As the world’s #1 Express Delivery and Logistics Company, DHL operates at a pace that demands precision, efficiency, and a solid understanding of Canadian customs regulations. If you thrive in a high-volume, time-sensitive environment and have a background in customs brokerage or international trade, this could be your next career move.

This role is central to facilitating the rapid clearance of commercial and personal goods through the CLVS (Courier Low Value Shipment) Program. You’ll be preparing, submitting, and managing customs documentation on behalf of importers — keeping shipments moving and compliance on point across a fast-paced express logistics operation.

About the Role: LVS Analyst

The LVS Analyst is responsible for end-to-end customs entry management within the CLVS threshold. Day-to-day tasks include data entry in ITMR, customs rating of LVS entries, classifying dutiable import/export shipments, and computing duties, tariffs, and weight or volume of imported and exported merchandise. You’ll also examine clearance invoices, bills of lading, and shipping documents to ensure full compliance with federal regulations and government agency rules.

Beyond data entry and classification, this position requires a working knowledge of SIMA compliance, Canadian surtaxes on U.S.-origin goods, and pending customs policy changes. You’ll coordinate with internal and external clients to obtain documentation, monitor and prepare LVS Preferred Accounts, and audit entries — all while hitting performance targets like 15 Entries Per Hour (EPH) with high accuracy.

Benefits and Salary

DHL Express offers competitive compensation packages alongside a range of programs, services, and benefits designed to support employees both professionally and personally. The company invests in its people and is committed to providing a workplace where every team member can make a meaningful contribution. Two shift options are available, offering some flexibility in scheduling.
