Logistics Administration Assistant

Location: Brighouse, HD6

Looking for More Than Just an Admin Role?

We're recruiting on behalf of a well-established logistics operation that is looking for a proactive and hands-on Logistics Administration Assistant to join their close-knit team in Brighouse.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with a logistics, warehouse, or transport background who wants a varied role combining administration, operational support, and future leadership responsibilities.

Working within a team of four, you’ll be a key part of the day-to-day operation, supporting warehouse activities, managing logistics systems, and acting as a deputy for the site leader when required.

The Role

This isn't a traditional office-based administration position, nor is it a pure warehouse role.

You’ll split your time between logistics administration, system management, customer and supplier communication, and supporting warehouse operations when needed.

Key Responsibilities

• Managing warehouse and transport management systems
• Coordinating stock and shipment movements
• Liaising with customers, suppliers, local production teams, and global partners
• Supporting health & safety processes across the site
• Producing reports and maintaining accurate operational records
• Assisting warehouse staff during busy periods
• Operating a Counterbalance FLT where required
• Providing supervisory support and overseeing the team in the manager's absence
• Contributing to continuous improvement across warehouse and logistics operations

What We're Looking For

• Previous experience within logistics, warehousing, transport, or supply chain operations
• Strong administration and organisational skills
• Experience using Warehouse Management Systems (WMS)
• Good IT skills, including Microsoft Office, Excel and email systems
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• Ability to work independently and take ownership of tasks
• Counterbalance FLT licence preferred, although training may be considered
• SAP Warehouse Management experience would be advantageous
• A positive attitude and willingness to learn
