Are you ready to take your next big step in the removals or transport industry?

Our client, a long-standing and respected name in the UK Removals & Storage sector, is on the lookout for a Trainee Branch Manager to join their busy Leeds operation. With multiple branches across the UK and a proud BAR membership, this company offers solid career development, hands-on training, and a genuine opportunity to grow into branch leadership.

This is the perfect role for:

• Graduates interested in transport, logistics or operations.
• People currently working in removals (admin, sales, driving, portering) who are ready to take that next step.
• Someone with industry-relevant experience who’s looking for a long-term career, not just a job.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Supporting the Branch Manager in daily operations and team supervision.
• Coordinating removal teams and transport logistics for residential and commercial moves.
• Assisting with planning, scheduling, storage, and client service.
• Learning all areas of running a successful branch — from operations and compliance to finance and customer experience.
• Handling admin tasks like invoicing, credit control, and processing wages.

What You’ll Need:

• A can-do attitude, strong organisational skills, and attention to detail.
• An interest in logistics, removals, or transport operations.
• Experience in a related field (ideal but not essential — full training will be provided).
• Confidence working with people and solving problems on the go.
• A desire to learn and grow into a leadership role.

What’s On Offer:

• Full training in all areas of branch operations.
• A clear career path into Branch Management.
• Support with industry qualifications (e.g. Transport Manager CPC, First Aid, Health & Safety).
• A supportive and experienced team to learn from.
• A real opportunity to build a career in a stable and growing sector.

This is more than just a job — it’s a chance to join a company that invests in its people and takes pride in what it does.
