Customer Focus: Managing delivery queries and keeping customers informed with clear, timely communication

Cost Control: Tracking fuel usage, transport spend, and fleet costs to identify efficiencies

Continuous Improvement: Monitoring KPIs (storage, throughput, efficiency, cost per pallet) and recommending smarter processes and technology enhancements

Warehouse Planning: Optimising space, storage layouts, slotting strategies, and utilisation levels

Data & Reporting: Maintaining accurate capacity data and producing insightful reports using WMS and TMS systems

Collaboration: Working closely with operations, procurement, transport, and project teams - including supporting new warehouse set-ups or expansions

What We're Looking For

Minimum 2 years' experience in transport and/or warehouse planning

Proven experience with HGV route planning, fleet management, or logistics operations

Strong working knowledge of transport compliance, drivers' hours, and cost control

Hands-on experience using WMS and TMS systems

Excellent organisational and time-management skills

Confident communicator - both written and verbal

A proactive, can-do attitude with pride in delivering a job well done

A strong team player who values collaboration

Working Pattern

Monday-Friday, 09:00-18:00 (30-minute break)
