Full job description

CHESTERFIELD, EAST MIDLANDS, UK

Job Type: Full-time, Permanent
Shift Pattern: 4 on 4 off, 06:00-18:00 or 18:00-06:00
Salary: £12.80 to £13.40 per hour
Based: Chesterfield

We are looking for an organised, confident and safety-focused Yard Controller to join our new Chesterfield operation.

Based within the site gatehouse, you will be responsible for controlling all vehicle, trailer, driver and visitor movements entering and leaving the site. You will work closely with our Transport and Warehouse teams to ensure vehicles are directed to the correct bays, trailer movements are accurately recorded, and all required checks and paperwork are completed.

As the site handles chilled food products, an important part of the role will be checking refrigerated trailers and supporting the protection of the cold chain.

Roles and Responsibilities:

Check drivers, vehicles and trailers in and out of the site.
Record vehicle registrations, trailer numbers, driver details, load references and arrival or departure times.
Communicate with Transport and Warehouse teams to confirm where each vehicle or trailer should go.
Direct drivers to the correct loading bay, unloading bay, parking area or holding location.
Maintain an accurate record of all trailers and their locations on site.
Confirm that the correct tractor unit and trailer are being used for each movement.
Check that vehicle and trailer details match the paperwork and transport plan.
Check trailers for visible damage, cleanliness and suitability.
Check that refrigerated trailer units are switched on, running and set to the correct temperature.
Check and record trailer temperatures where required.
Identify and escalate refrigeration alarms, temperature issues, defects or damage.
Check load paperwork, Proof of Delivery documentation, trailer seals and customer-specific documents.
Ensure no vehicle or trailer leaves the site without the correct authorisation and paperwork.
Monitor vehicle waiting times and escalate operational delays.
Ensure drivers follow site safety, security, parking, speed-limit and PPE requirements.
Maintain accurate gatehouse records and provide clear shift handovers.

Skills and Experience:

Previous experience within transport, warehouse, gatehouse, yard or distribution operations.
Strong communication and organisational skills.
Excellent attention to detail.
Confidence dealing with drivers and operational teams.
Ability to work calmly in a fast-moving environment.
Basic computer skills, including email and Microsoft Office.
Ability to accurately check vehicle, trailer and paperwork information.
A professional and safety-focused approach.
Willingness to work independently and take ownership of operational issues.

Experience within chilled food logistics, refrigerated transport or temperature-controlled distribution would be an advantage, but training can be provided to the right candidate.

If you're interested in the position, then please apply and one of our team will be in touch to discuss further.
