  • Manage transportation schedules using advanced systems such as Transportation Management Systems (TMS) and SyteLine to optimise delivery routes and timings.
  • Coordinate shipping and receiving activities, ensuring timely dispatch and receipt of goods in accordance with company policies.
  • Utilise AS400 and other logistics software to input, update, and maintain accurate data records related to shipments, inventory, and transport documentation.
  • Analyse transportation data to identify inefficiencies or delays and recommend improvements to enhance overall supply chain performance.
  • Communicate effectively with internal teams, third-party logistics providers (3PL), carriers, and suppliers via phone, email, and other channels, maintaining professional phone etiquette at all times.
  • Maintain organised records of all transport-related documentation, including bills of lading, shipping labels, and customs paperwork.
  • Assist with inventory management through regular data entry tasks within systems such as SyteLine.
  • Support shipping & receiving operations by preparing necessary documentation and coordinating schedules to ensure smooth flow of goods.

  • Familiarity with 3PL operations, logistics processes, and shipping & receiving procedures.
  • Strong analysis skills with the ability to interpret complex data sets for operational improvements.
  • Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, including professional phone etiquette.
  • Proficiency in data entry tasks with high accuracy; experience with AS400 is desirable but not essential.
  • Demonstrated ability to work efficiently under pressure in a fast-paced environment while maintaining attention to detail.
  • Previous experience in a logistics or supply chain administrative role is preferred but not mandatory; relevant training will be provided for the right candidate. This role offers a dynamic working environment where organisational skills and logistical expertise are highly valued.
