We’re looking for an experienced Transport & Distribution Centre Manager to run one of our 24‑hour depots, playing a vital role in ensuring patients receive essential medicines safely, accurately, and on time.

As the Centre Manager, you’ll take full ownership of day‑to‑day operations across a busy regional site. You’ll lead a team of drivers, warehouse staff, manage fleet compliance, maintain strict temperature‑controlled product standards, and ensure all KPI targets are consistently achieved.

Maintaining full stock and product tracking, guaranteeing accuracy and regulatory compliance
Ensuring fleet vehicles remain roadworthy, clean, temperature‑compliant, and aligned with business needs
Managing operational budgets for your site and supporting other centres nationally
Leading business continuity planning so patient service is never disrupted

An experienced people manager with strong logistics, transport or depot leadership experience
Someone confident in decision‑making within a 24-hour, fast-paced operational environment
A strong communicator who builds trust, supports their team, and maintains high performance standards
Someone comfortable working flexibly to support a 24/7 regional operation
Proficient in MS Office with strong organisational and planning skills
Must hold a clean, valid driving licence and pass DBS checks

What’s in it for you

The opportunity to lead one of our key regional distribution centres and shape its service performance
A role where your decisions directly impact patient experience and health outcomes
Supportive leadership and opportunities to develop within a growing national logistics network
A varied, hands‑on role with real autonomy and space to innovate
Being part of a mission‑driven organisation proud to be best‑in‑class in healthcare distribution

Additional to a competitive salary, we also offer a comprehensive benefits package, including:

33 days holiday (inclusive of bank holidays)
Access to BUPA private medical scheme
Yearly pay reviews.
Refer a friend scheme.
Annual company event.
Contribution based pension scheme.
Life Assurance.
Bike to work scheme.
Discount & cashback portal.
Paid volunteer day
Access to various wellbeing initiatives
Ongoing learning and development.

At the core of our values is our commitment to improve patient experience and every role contributes to achieving this outcome.
