What You'll Do

We're on the lookout for a hands‑on, proactive team player to join our small but mighty Customer Service team. In this role, you'll be at the heart of our transport operation – coordinating jobs, solving problems, updating customers and keeping everything running like clockwork. You'll thrive on juggling tasks, staying organised, and building strong relationships with customers, drivers and the wider team.

Typical day

• Coordinating the movement of goods from suppliers to customers or storage facilities
• Tracking live jobs and deliveries using our Transport Management System
• Communicating with drivers, hauliers, and colleagues to keep things on track
• Handling customer updates, delivery queries, and resolving any hiccups quickly
• Working closely with internal teams to ensure we're all aligned
• Managing the POD (proof of delivery) process and ensuring documentation is accurate

What We're Looking For

• Confident communicator – both on the phone and by email
• Highly organised with great attention to detail
• Comfortable juggling priorities in a reactive, deadline‑driven environment
• Strong IT skills – some of our processes are manual, so accuracy matters!
• A team player with a 'can do' attitude; no task too big or small

Nice‑to‑Have (But Not Essential)

• Experience in logistics, haulage, transport or warehousing
• Familiar with PODs or TMS (Transport Management Systems)

What's in it for you

• Salary £25, 396.80 with annual reviews to recognise your growth and contribution.
• Healthcare Benefits – includes GP on Tap and a Health Shield Cash Plan, giving you up to £1,000 per year to claim back on everyday medical and wellbeing expenses like dental, optical, physio and more.
• Regular team socials – from summer and Christmas celebrations to spontaneous get‑togethers, we love a reason to get together and have fun!
• We value your commitment – enjoy increasing holiday and healthcare benefits as you grow with us.
• Giving back together – we proudly support Operation Orphan and take part in a range of charitable initiatives throughout the year including our unmissable annual charity football tournament. You'll also get paid volunteer days to support causes that matter to you.
• Laid‑back, ambitious environment – We're focused on growth (yours and ours), but we keep things supportive, down‑to‑earth, and collaborative. Alongside meaningful work, you'll find thoughtful touches that make the day‑to‑day better. From regular pizza Fridays to say thanks, to fresh fruit and drinks to keep you fuelled. It's about creating a space where people feel valued and enjoy coming to work.
