Who are we?

Manage attendance, timekeeping, holidays and absence reporting.
Support recruitment, onboarding and training of operational staff.
Promote a positive safety culture and high standards of conduct.

Ensure effective communication between management and frontline teams.

Compliance & Health and Safety

Ensure compliance with Operator Licence requirements.
Monitor driver hours, Working Time Directive and tachograph compliance.
Ensure all vehicles operate in accordance with legal and company requirements.
Maintain driver licence checks and competency records.
Ensure completion of daily vehicle defect reporting procedures.
Investigate accidents, incidents and near misses.

Analyse operational data to identify improvement opportunities.
Produce operational reports for management.
Support budgetary control and cost management initiatives.

Customer Service

Liaise with commercial customers regarding service requirements and operational issues.
Resolve customer complaints and service failures promptly.
Ensure service delivery meets customer expectations and contractual obligations.
Support retention and growth of key customer accounts through high service standards.

Fleet Management
