Reporting to the Operations Director, the Head of Logistics will lead and manage the logistics team at our site in Aylesford; ensuring the efficient storage and movement of goods and the timely delivery of products to customers.

The successful candidate will have proven experience in leading and developing teams within a fast-paced logistics, warehouse or supply chain environment.

Experience with warehouse automation and robotics (such as automated picking systems) is highly desirable.

A qualification in Continuous Improvement, a relevant Health & Safety certification (IOSH/NEBOSH), or a logistics/supply chain qualification would be advantageous, though not essential.

Stay informed on logistics trends and implement appropriate technologies and equipment

Compliance and Governance:

Ensure sufficient resource and capacity planning to meet fluctuating customer demand

Ensure all equipment is maintained to a high standard for safe and efficient operation
Ensure compliance with all relevant regulations, including transport and export requirements

Commercial & Operational Performance:

Support internal and external audits
Manage logistics costs including labour, freight, and storage budgets
Identify and deliver cost-saving and efficiency initiatives
Support demand planning and capacity forecasting
Continuously improve logistics processes to increase speed, accuracy, and efficiency

Systems & Data:

Own and optimise warehouse management systems (WMS/ERP)
Use data and KPIs to drive performance improvements
Produce regular performance reports for senior leadership

Cross-functional Collaboration:

Contribute to key business improvement and development projects, both leading initiatives and supporting cross-functional delivery
Work closely with Procurement, Sales, and Customer Service teams to improve service levels
Act as an escalation point for logistics-related issues impacting customers

Goods Out:

Ensure accurate, on-time picking, packing, and dispatch of all customer orders in line with OTIF targets
Establish effective communication processes between logistics, sales, and customer service teams

Goods In:

Ensure accurate and efficient booking-in and put-away of all supplier deliveries
Maintain clear communication processes to escalate supplier or delivery issues promptly

Goods Control:

Ensure accurate and timely movement of goods within the warehouse
Maintain effective stock storage and location practices

Fixfast, a proud family-run business, has just celebrated its 50th anniversary with a continued commitment to innovation, excellence and market-leading technology. Recently relocated to modern premises in Aylesford, we are well-positioned to support our ongoing growth and ambitious future objectives.
