Solving complex planning problems related to branch de-kit (cages), backhaul placements, fleet availability, and multi-drop deliveries.
Utilising system data and systems such as (Transport Management Systems, Paragon Warehouse Management Systems, and Branch Order Builder,) to coordinate workflow across all business areas, ensuring minimal delays and maximum efficiency.
Identifying opportunities for cost reductions in line with business objectives (e.g. waste management or de-kit collection reductions) while ensuring all plans comply with Working Time Directives and EU drivers' hours.

Ability to communicate with both internal and external stakeholders (all levels).
Evidence of identifying and supporting cost-reduction initiatives (identify areas where cost saving can be made in backhaul placement and opportunities to reduce driving routes).

Desirable skills/experience you may have

A proven track record of maintaining data integrity and accuracy under pressure.
Certification of a professional body associated with planning (e.g Professional Competency qualification for Transport Managers (Road Haulage)).

We’re ruthlessly focused on being brilliant at retail. We continue to innovate, adapt and diversify. Never Knowingly Undersold on price, quality and service in John Lewis and passionately serving food-lovers in Waitrose.

As Partners, we make all the difference. And, we all own it.

Important points to note:

It’s important to note that some of our roles are subject to pre-employment vetting (which may include DBS checks for successful candidates). If required, you’ll be informed and provided with information about vetting during the recruitment process and we encourage you to complete any vetting documents quickly to avoid delays. Any DBS checks required will be carried out by a third-party registered body and financial probity checks may also be required for some of our roles.

We occasionally close vacancies early in the event we receive a high volume of applications, and therefore, we recommend you apply early. If you require a reasonable adjustment due to a disability which means you may need longer to complete your application please contact us as soon as possible.

We want all of our Partners to have a good work-life balance and we support flexible working. This might mean flexible or compressed hours, job sharing or shorter hour contracts, where possible. Please discuss this further with the hiring manager during your interview.
