Job Purpose: Deanta UK Ltd is a leading supplier of premium internal doors, operating a national distribution fleet from our Ely headquarters and Haydock depot. As part of a significant transformation of our transport function, we are seeking a commercially focused and strategically minded leader to shape the future of our UK distribution network.

This is not a hands-on transport management role. As Transport Strategy & Performance Manager, you will lead through an experienced leadership team, defining and delivering Deanta's transport strategy to drive commercial performance, network optimisation, operational excellence and sustainable business growth.

As a key member of the Operations Leadership Team, you will work closely with Operations, Sales, Finance to influence strategic decisions, deliver business transformation and build a scalable, high-performing transport function. Success will be measured by your ability to improve profitability, customer service, network efficiency and organisational capability while supporting Deanta's long-term growth.

Responsibilities:

Develop and deliver the transport strategy, ensuring it supports Deanta UK’s growth ambitions, customer service objectives and operational excellence across the network distribution network.
Lead the performance of the transport function through your leadership team, driving operational excellence, service delivery, fleet utilisation and continuous improvement across multiple sites.
Own transport commercial performance, managing budgets, cost-to-serve, fleet investment and subcontractor strategy to maximise efficiency and deliver sustainable cost savings.
Drive network optimisation through the effective use of data, analytics and technology to improve network design, fleet utilisation, capacity planning, productivity and overall business performance.
Lead business transformation and continuous improvement initiatives, identifying opportunities to enhance processes, technology, automation and ways of working that improve service and operational performance.
Build and develop a high-performing transport leadership team, creating a culture of accountability, engagement, succession planning and continuous professional development.
Provide strategic insight and performance reporting to senior leadership, developing KPI dashboards and using data-driven recommendations to influence operational and commercial decision-making.
Ensure robust governance and regulatory compliance, maintaining full compliance with Operator Licence obligations, Drivers' Hours Regulations, Working Time Directive and all transport legislation while embedding best practice across the operation.

Skills & Experience Required

Experience developing and implementing transport strategy within a complex, multi-site distribution environment, with accountability for commercial performance, operational transformation and business improvement.
Strong commercial and analytical capability, with experience using data, KPIs and financial insight to drive network optimisation, cost reduction and service improvement.
Demonstrable success leading change and transformation, delivering process improvements, technology adoption and operational efficiencies within a fast-paced environment.
Excellent leadership and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence at all levels.
Sound knowledge of UK transport legislation and compliance, including Operator Licence requirements, Drivers' Hours Regulations and Working Time Directive. Transport Manager CPC (Road Haulage) is desirable but not essential.

Personal Attributes:
