Ensure all planning is carried out in line with the Working Time Directive, EU/GB Drivers' Hours Rules and break requirements.

Manage drivers' hours, tachograph downloads and analysis using Tachomaster (or equivalent), and monitor, investigate and report on all infringements.
Oversee daily vehicle walkaround checks, defect reporting and the timely rectification of identified faults.
Ensure all vehicles, trailers and drivers remain fully compliant with DVSA standards, MOT, inspection and servicing schedules.

Plan and manage driver annual leave, absence and training, ensuring adequate cover at all times.
Identify training needs and coordinate Driver CPC, induction and refresher training as required.

Customer & Stakeholder Management

Build and maintain strong working relationships with customers, acting as a key point of contact for transport-related matters.
Keep customers informed of job bookings, schedule changes, rescheduling and cancellations in a timely and professional manner.
Resolve customer issues promptly, escalating where necessary and ensuring lessons learned are fed back into the operation.

Health & Safety

Work in line with the company's Health & Safety policies and procedures at all times.
Promote a strong safety culture across the driver team, ensuring all activities are carried out safely and within legal requirements.
Report accidents, incidents and near misses promptly and support investigations to identify root cause and prevent recurrence.

General Operations & Administration

Provide cover for colleagues during periods of absence or peak demand.
Assist with general operational and administrative tasks as required to support the wider business.
Produce regular reports on KPIs, including utilisation, on-time performance, infringements, vehicle availability and driver availability forecasting.

Experience using Tachomaster (or equivalent tachograph analysis software) for monitoring drivers' hours and managing infringements.
Demonstrable ability to analyse logistics data and use insights to drive efficiency and cost control.
Strong IT literacy, including confident use of Microsoft Office (Outlook, Excel, Word) and transport-related systems.
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to engage effectively with drivers, customers and colleagues at all levels.
