Role Overview
We are seeking a driven and experienced Operations Team Leader to lead one of our four Operational Circuit Teams. Operating much like a high-volume contact centre, our teams coordinate daily with hundreds of professional drivers across the UK. This is not just about logistics—it’s about leadership in a fast-paced, communication-heavy environment.
The successful candidate will bring proven experience in managing contact centre operations, with a strong focus on call handling performance, KPI management, and operational efficiency. You’ll be accountable for improving call response times, driving down call waiting metrics, and delivering consistent service quality across your team.
This role suits a confident, analytical, and highly organised individual who thrives in a people-first, target-driven setting.
Key Responsibilities
Contact Centre Leadership & Performance:
- Lead a high-performing team within a logistics coordination environment, operating as a contact centre handling a high volume of inbound driver calls daily.
- Drive improvements in key call centre metrics such as average wait time, call abandonment rates, first-call resolution, and overall service levels.
- Monitor real-time performance and coach team members to ensure consistent achievement of individual and team KPIs.
- Utilise workforce management tools and systems to forecast demand and schedule team resource effectively.
Team & Resource Management:
- Structure and develop your team to ensure optimal resource allocation and operational coverage.
- Motivate, coach, and support your team to achieve high levels of performance and service delivery.
- Conduct performance reviews and lead from the front to drive engagement, development, and accountability.
Operational Efficiency & Process Improvement:
- Continually review and refine processes to improve response times and service delivery, reducing inefficiencies in the call flow and coordination systems.
- Ensure your team adheres to established procedures, quality standards, and compliance expectations.
Collaboration & Customer Experience:
- Liaise closely with driver operations teams to support the timely coordination and execution of tasks.
- Maintain exceptional internal and external customer communication standards, ensuring professionalism, clarity, and consistency across all contact points.
What We’re Looking For
- Demonstrable experience managing a high-volume contact or call centre operation, ideally within a logistics or service-driven environment.
- A results-oriented leader with a proven track record of improving call performance metrics, team engagement, and service standards.
- Strong analytical skills to interpret data, identify trends, and implement performance-driving actions.
- Excellent communication, coaching, and team-building skills.
- Ability to remain calm and effective under pressure in a fast-paced, reactive environment.
Why Join Us?
This is a key leadership role with a direct impact on our operational success and customer satisfaction. You will be joining a forward-thinking, technology-enabled business that values innovation, development, and collaboration. We offer a competitive salary, clear progression opportunities, and the chance to be part of a fast-growing logistics network at the heart of the automotive industry.
