English term or phrase: shipbroker
Context: My duties within the company involve being the personal assistant to the Chairman/CEO along with 20 **Shipbrokers**.
If a shipbroker is the intermediary that negotiates with both parts to set up a maritime transport agreement, what is the word in Spanish? I thought of consignatario, but from the definitions I found, a consignatario is the part that receives the cargo on behalf of the owner.
This is a CV for a person who has been working in London and has now moved to Spain.
Much appreciated.
