Full job description

About McPherson

McPherson Ltd is an established multi-site logistics operation based in Moray, running a fleet with around 350 drivers across Scotland. We work with distilleries, producers and processors across the region, moving everything from bulk items and liquids to co-products, and we're investing in the systems and people that keep the operation running at its best.

The role

We're expanding our planning team and have two positions available.

As a Transport Planner you'll build and manage the daily plan, matching work to vehicles and drivers, keeping customers informed, and reacting when the day changes. It's a fast-moving role in a busy traffic office, where no two days are the same and the decisions you make matter.

You'll take ownership of a desk covering a specific area of our operation, working alongside a small, experienced planning team.

What you'll do

Plan daily collections and deliveries across your desk
Allocate work to vehicles and drivers, making best use of both
Schedule to meet customer deadlines and service commitments
Brief drivers on their day and handle changes as they come in
Liaise with customers on collection and delivery times
Monitor vehicle availability and utilisation
Re-plan quickly when things change, including breakdowns, delays and late bookings
Record work accurately in our transport management system, so the information the business and our customers rely on is correct

What you'll need

Essential

Confident with computers and comfortable learning new systems
Well organised, with genuine attention to detail
Able to hold several priorities at once without losing track
Clear communicator, as you'll be speaking to drivers and customers
Calm under pressure and comfortable making decisions
Working knowledge of Microsoft productivity tools especially Excel
Full UK driving licence

Desirable

Previous experience in transport planning, logistics or a traffic office
Experience with a transport management system (we use Qargo)
Understanding of drivers' hours, tachograph rules and vehicle types
Knowledge of Scottish geography and road networks

We'll consider strong candidates from outside logistics. If you've planned, scheduled or coordinated work in another fast-paced environment and you're organised and quick-thinking, we're interested.

Who this suits

Someone who likes a busy day, enjoys solving a puzzle with moving parts, and takes satisfaction in a plan that works. You'll be joining an established team with the support to learn our operation properly.

What we offer

£30,000 to £36,000 depending on experience
28 days holiday including bank holidays
A holistic training approach to our systems and ways of working
Funded training and professional development
A team where you're supported to grow and improve

Job Types: Full-time, Permanent

Pay: From £30,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Company pension
On-site parking

Ability to commute/relocate:

Aberlour AB38 9LB: reliably commute or plan to relocate before starting work (required)

Work Location: In person
