Ensure all transport documentation, Proof of Delivery (PODs), and delivery paperwork are accurately completed and processed.
Ensure compliance with transport legislation, including Driver Hours, Working Time Directive, and company policies.
Support the management of returned goods and ensure depot procedures are followed.
Maintain accurate transport records and update internal systems.
Assist with customer enquiries relating to deliveries and provide timely updates.
Promote a safe working environment and ensure compliance with Group Health & Safety standards.
Identify opportunities to improve transport efficiency and support continuous improvement initiatives.

What We're Looking For:

Previous experience in a Transport Coordinator, Transport Planner, or Logistics Coordinator role.
Excellent organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
Strong communication skills and the ability to build effective relationships with drivers, customers, and colleagues.
Good geographical knowledge and route planning experience.
Experience using transport management systems (TMS) and Microsoft Office.
Knowledge of Driver Hours Regulations and transport compliance is desirable.
Experience within a builders' merchant, timber, construction, or logistics environment is advantageous.
A proactive, customer-focused approach with excellent attention to detail.

What We Offer:

Competitive salary (dependent on experience).
Monday–Friday working pattern.
Opportunity to join one of the UK's leading timber businesses.
Access to a leading Health & Wellbeing programme.
Christmas shutdown.
Ongoing training and career development opportunities.
