What will you do?

As an Operations Expert – Trucking, you play an important role in ensuring the smooth and efficient movement of renewable fuels by road. Every day, you coordinate transport activities, solve operational challenges, and work closely with transport companies, terminals, customers, and internal teams.

No two days are the same. You enjoy finding solutions when unexpected situations arise and continuously look for ways to improve processes. Your insights help us operate more efficiently while maintaining excellent service for our customers.

Your responsibilities include:

• Coordinating daily truck transport operations from terminal to customer.
• Monitoring transport schedules and resolving operational issues.
• Communicating with transport companies, terminals, customers, and internal stakeholders.
• Identifying process improvements and helping implement smarter ways of working.
• Analysing operational data and preparing reports using Excel, Power BI, and Business Central.
• Supporting projects that improve operational performance and customer satisfaction.
• Maintaining accurate process documentation in SharePoint and other systems.
• Contributing to a safe, compliant, and efficient supply chain.

What makes this role unique?

Connex is growing rapidly and has an ambitious goal of handling 1,000,000 metric tonnes of renewable fuels in the coming years. Most of this volume arrives by truck, making this role essential to our success.

You will join a team where ownership is valued. If you enjoy solving complex operational challenges, taking initiative, and improving the way things work, you'll have plenty of opportunities to make a real impact. We encourage new ideas and support your professional growth, allowing you to shape your own career.

Who are we?

Connex is an international company active in the renewable fuels supply chain. We connect suppliers, transport partners, terminals, and customers to ensure sustainable products are delivered safely and efficiently.

Our Operations team consists of experienced professionals, including an Operations Director, Operations Manager, Quality Coordinator, Operational Excellence & Procurement Manager, Operations Experts, and Operations Executives. Together, we work in a dynamic environment where teamwork, continuous improvement, and customer focus are central to everything we do.

At Connex, ownership is more than a value; it is part of our culture. When you take initiative, you'll be trusted to make decisions, improve processes, and grow within the organisation.

What will you bring?

You have experience in logistics, transport, supply chain, or trading operations and enjoy working in a fast-moving environment where every day brings new challenges.

You will likely recognise yourself in the following:

• Around 5-10 years of experience in logistics, supply chain, transport, or operational excellence.

• Knowledge of ERP systems such as Business Central.
• Strong Excel skills and experience with reporting tools such as Power BI.
• Experience using SharePoint or similar process documentation tools.
• An analytical mindset and the ability to solve operational problems quickly.
• Strong communication skills and confidence when working with different stakeholders.
• The ability to manage multiple priorities while remaining organised.
• A proactive attitude and a drive to improve processes.
• Experience in renewable fuels, commodities, or trading is an advantage but not essential.

What do we offer?

• A one-year contract with the intention of a permanent position based on good performance.
• A competitive salary and attractive employment conditions.
• Opportunities for professional development and career growth.
• A collaborative and supportive working environment.
• The chance to contribute to the transition towards more sustainable energy solutions.
• A workplace where your ideas, initiative, and ownership are recognised and valued.

If you are excited about this opportunity but don't meet every requirement, we still encourage you to apply. We value motivation, curiosity, and the willingness to learn just as much as experience.
