Who are we?

Smiths (Gloucester) Ltd is a family run business owned and run by the Smith family since 1982.

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.

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
