Job description

Are you confident with Excel, organised, and quick to pick up new systems?

We’re supporting a busy business during a peak seasonal period and are looking for a temporary Transport / Operations Coordinator to provide hands‑on support for around 4 months.

This role is ideal for someone with strong admin and coordination skills, rather than a specialist transport background.

What you’ll be doing:

• Coordinating and planning deliveries using internal systems
• Liaising with third‑party transport suppliers
• Updating schedules, tracking movements, and maintaining accurate data
• Supporting the team during a fast‑paced and time‑sensitive period

What we’re looking for:

• Good Excel and general systems confidence
• Strong communication and organisation skills
• Ability to pick things up quickly and work at pace
• A proactive, reliable approach

No specific transport planning experience is required. Training will be provided.
This is an immediate start, so candidates with short or no notice periods are encouraged to apply.
