Run the operation. Lead the team. Own the outcome.
We're looking for a hands-on Transport Manager to take full ownership of our transport function and join the site leadership team. You'll run a nationwide operation of 60+ vehicles, manage an office team of 5, and have real influence over a business-critical part of the company.
The role
Running daily transport operations, hitting service, cost and compliance targets
Leading, coaching and developing your office team and driver workforce
Keeping the fleet maintained, legal and compliant with O-Licence standards via approved service providers
Tracking performance, solving problems in real time and driving improvement
Acting as a key voice in the site leadership team
With a mixed fleet of artics and rigids under an O-Licence. A CPC isn't essential — but you must be prepared to work towards it and gain it within your first 12 months.
What you'll bring
Proven experience managing a transport operation
Genuine leadership ability — people follow you because they want to
A proactive, organised approach with an eye for detail
Solid grounding in transport compliance, vehicle maintenance and route planning
Flexibility, including the occasional early start
A supportive culture where good ideas get heard and progression is genuinely available
