Correct NOC for Import Coordinator job title

[dergas]

Hi all,

I am applying through the Express Entry like many of you, I got here in Canada by the CEC (Canadian Experience Class) and I am having difficulties to classify my job under the correct NOC. After completing my business diploma I got a job as "Import Coordinator", but this job title does not exist exactly like this form in any of the NOC.

Initially I was hoping to apply under NOC 1215 because one of the example titles is "import traffic supervisor" and the duties are closer to mine than any other NOC. The thing is this position is supervisor level, which implies that I am supposed to supervise other workers (not my case I just coordinate with others departments) and CIC might question if I really am at supervisor level after reviewing my company letter.

So CIC could for example say I should be classified as the NOC 1452 (Import Clerk skill lvl C not valid for EE) even though my duties are way more complex and I have much more responsibility.

I would love to know you guys thoughts about this matter, I am very worried as 2 immigration agents that I consulted are not so sure about my NOC as well after reading the letter from my company (I can put the duties below if anyone is interested to see them).

Thank you and good luck for us all!

Hi There,

I am also in the same position as you are. My title is "Logistics Coordinator" all the duties I do is related to the Ocean Freight Coordinator NOC 1215.
I also coordinate with the other department and overseas office but do not have any supervisor duties involved.

Please let me know how did your application go.

Thanks and regards,
Nikhil

your NOC shall match your duties and not the name of your position (different companies have different names of positions). If your duties match the 1215 NOC, that that is your NOC.

Hi Vensak,

Thanks for the response. My duties match few of few of the ones mentioned under 1215.
Also 1215 says Supervisor "," Supply chain etc. which means supervisors and coordinators too fall under the same category right ?
Since I perform the duties but I do have any supervisory duties that's why i am little concerned.

Supervisors in this unit group perform some or all of the following duties:

With that said, it does not mean that you actually have to supervise or manage people directly. Supervising can be in the sense, that you check the first entries and do the decisions or correct it and contact clerks that did it. That job also requires higher amount of independence.
So when it comes to writing reference letter, important is wording, so they understand that you are alone standing responsible for more important work, which includes checking and approving others request.

Yes, but unfortunately only to 1526

If you want to have it in 1215, you need to add something that is resembling to following:

Train workers in job duties, safety procedures and company policies

Plan, organize and oversee operational logistics of the organization, establish work schedules and procedures, resolve work-related issues, prepare and submit progress and other reports and co-ordinate activities with other supply-chain work units or departments
Yes you do have there troubleshooting, but reporting and planning part for logistics as such is missing. (that is something where you make some monhly plan - like spending for logistics for example; and later you report results of this monthly activity)

Co-ordinate, assign and review the work of clerks engaged in the following duties: shipping, receiving, storing, distributing and maintaining inventories of materials, parts and products; processing purchasing transactions; co-ordinating production work; dispatching crews; scheduling transportation crews and routes; operating airport ramp servicing vehicles; and other related activities
Here you do not need to be their manager, you can be matrix assign responsible to dispatch request for operations.
