• Ensuring compliance with health & safety procedures
\n
• Liaising with transport providers and resolving any delivery issues
\n
• Monitoring KPIs and identifying opportunities for continuous improvement

You'll ideally have:

\n
• Experience managing a warehouse within a manufacturing or distribution environment

• Previous transport planning or logistics coordination experience
\n
• Strong leadership skills with the ability to motivate a small team
\n
• Excellent organisational and problem-solving abilities
\n
• Experience with warehouse systems and inventory management
\n
• A proactive, hands-on approach with a focus on continuous improvement

What's on Offer

\n
• Stable, growing business
\n
• Supportive management team
\n
• Opportunity to make a real impact within the operation
\n
• Long-term career prospects
