Company Overview

JTC Furniture Group strives to become one of the UK's leading companies in the furniture industry, specialising in fitted furniture solutions for kitchens, healthcare, and education sectors. Our mission is to build strong relationships with clients through innovation, flexibility, and continuous investment in technology.

Summary

We are seeking a dedicated Transport and Logistics Manager to join our team in Dundee. The Transport and Logistics Manager is responsible for designing, leading, and optimising the transport and logistics function to ensure reliable, high-quality delivery performance while driving cost efficiency and improving margins. The role provides greater operational control and accountability by reviewing and reshaping the current outsourced logistics arrangement, creating a scalable logistics model that supports the organisation's continued growth and evolving business needs.

Key Responsibilities

Logistics Strategy & Operating Model

Assess current logistics model (including subcontractor arrangements such as React)
Define and implement a future-state logistics strategy (in-house vs outsourced vs hybrid)
Build a scalable operating model aligned to project-based delivery (multi-site, multi-drop)

Supplier & Contract Management

Review and renegotiate (or replace) logistics SLAs
Implement clear KPIs (OTIF, cost per drop, utilisation, damage rates)
Hold subcontractors accountable for performance

Operational Performance

Drive improvements in:

Delivery accuracy
Vehicle utilisation (eliminate empty trucks) On-time, in-full (OTIF) delivery
Introduce planning discipline (routing, scheduling, load optimisation)

Customer Experience

Reduce complaints linked to:

Missed deliveries
Damaged goods
Poor coordination with installation teams
Work closely with commercial and operations teams to align delivery with site needs

Systems & Data

Implement or optimise logistics systems (routing, tracking, reporting)
Build performance dashboards and reporting cadence
Use data to drive decisions, not instinct

Team Leadership

Build and lead an internal logistics capability (planners, drivers if applicable)
Define roles and accountability where currently blurred between internal team and subcontractor
Embed a culture of ownership and continuous improvement

Cost & Commercial Management

Deliver measurable cost improvements
Improve visibility of true logistics cost (currently likely opaque due to subcontracting)
Support pricing and margin improvement through better logistics control

Key Deliverables (First 6–12 Months)

Full diagnostic of current logistics performance and cost base
Clear recommendation on React relationship (fix, renegotiate, or exit)
Implementation of KPI framework and reporting

Measurable improvements in:

OTIF

Cost per delivery

Vehicle utilisation

Defined and embedded logistics operating model

Experience

Experience in construction, manufacturing, or project-based delivery environments
Proven track record of:

Turning around underperforming logistics operations

Managing 3PL/subcontractors

Implementing systems and process improvements

Skills

Strong commercial and analytical capability
Operational grip (not just strategy)
Supplier management and negotiation
Ability to work cross-functionally (sales, ops, installation)

Personal Attributes

Challenges the status quo (you need someone who will push back)
Hands-on and pragmatic
Comfortable operating in ambiguity and fixing messy situations
Credible with both shop floor and leadership team

Success Measures

Improved OTIF (target to be defined)
Reduction in logistics cost as % of revenue
Reduction in customer complaints
Increased vehicle utilisation
Clear, functioning SLA and governance model

'Join us at JTC Furniture Group where your expertise can shape the future of furniture logistics. If you’re ready to lead with innovation and make a tangible impact, we look forward to your application!'
